Book excerpt: Spawn: The Dark Ages Complete Collection reprints the journey of Lord Covenant, a 12th Century knight killed in a holy crusade far from his homeland, who returns to Earth as a HellSpawn. As a plague of violence and turmoil blankets the English countryside, the Dark Knight must choose whether to align himself with the innocent inhabitants of the once-thriving kingdom, or with the malevolent forces of evil and corruption. Featuring behind-the-scenes bonus art and a cover gallery, Spawn: The Dark Ages Complete Collection is the first time the series will be collected in a hardcover, oversized format. Reprints issues #1-28.
