      For sure! I love that cover. Spawn is really interesting with most of the more valuable issues coming mid-run. Obviously, a lot of that has to do with the low print-runs, but it was weird to have to leave off so many later run issues because they significantly overshadow the early issues value wise.

      There was an Image rep who discovered that the guy running the comic shop was selling them at ComicCon that year. He tracked them down offering $100 a piece on that day.

      Spawn 1 is always a great book to find in a collection, but unfortunately there are so many of them that it doesn’t have a ton of value. The early issues are far and away the most common, so chances are what you found has more sentimental value than monetary value. I was guess maybe $75 on the high end. All comes down to the grade. Anything below NM grades and you’re going to lose value in a hurry.
