Jonathan Glapion's No Home Here in January 2025 Spawn Solicits

Announced in July 2023, Daniel Henriques and Jonathan Glapion launch their new Spawn series No Home Here from Todd McFarlane.

Announced in July 2023 and finally being published next year, Daniel Henriques and Jonathan Glapion launch their new Spawn series No Home Here from Todd McFarlane as part of Image Comics' January 2025 solicits and solicitations.

And it goes back to the earliest Spawn issues with the story of serial killer Billy Kincaid's final victim. The serial killer ice cream seller created by Todd McFarlane was murdered by Spawn murdered in the first year of the series, before Alan Moore wrote the story of his journey into hell. Billy Kincaid was brought to the Eighth Sphere of hell, Malebolgia's domain, where he is fitted with the K3-Myrlu, a female symbiote suit much the same as Spawn, making him a minion in Hell's Army. But what of his victims?

"Shirlee Johnson was the final victim of child killer Billy Kincaid; now trapped in an unending nightmare, she is cursed to endlessly relive her final moments on Earth.  All hope seems lost… until the sudden appearance of an enigmatic Stranger disrupting her cycle of torment."

In the original Spawn #5 above, Sherlee Johnson was a 7-year-old girl and the 28th victim of convicted Kincaid. Her only appearance was in that issue where she is seen approaching Kincaid's ice-cream truck, he invites her in to "pick out her favorite popsicle" she is kidnapped, brought back to his home, and murdered. Her corpse is stripped, her fingers removed, and she is placed in a deep freeze. It really wasn't nice, probably wouldn't be done like that now, and was an early example of Spawn fridging – literally in this case. And now Spawn regular Jonathan Glapion and Daniel Henriques, better known for Ronin Book 2 with Frank Miller, have a chance to revisit the whole thing thirty-plus years on. Here are Todd McFarlane's full Image Comics' January 2025 solicits and solicitations.
