Questions, pt. 1

Five years after his death, Al Simmons returns to Earth as Spawn. He is confused and angry, not knowing what has happened in the last 5 years, and not really understanding the deal he had to make to return.

Wearing a costume like that of a superhero, Spawn finds that he has incredible powers at his disposal. He first tests these powers by saving a woman from being raped in the alleys of New York.
