As it turns out, this is actually the precise reason that McFarlane decided to make the Spawn movie there.
Now, the writer explains why he decided to go with a smaller production company for his comic book movie.
Spawn is a comic book character and so one might expect to see the Spawn film done in the style of a Marvel or DC movie.
Fans of Spawn were excited during San Diego Comic-Con to learn that creator Todd McFarlane is working to bring his most famous creation back to the big screen.
