Spawn/YMMV

"Spawn: Shut up, before I permanently introduce your face to your colon."
 * Complete Monster: Clown. And Jason Wynn.
 * Crowning Moment of Funny: From the HBO series, in response to Clown being an annoying Jerkass:


 * Crowning Moment of Heartwarming: One episode of the HBO series has Al using  to come back and talk to Wanda. He doesn't find her, but he does find his granny, resulting in an extremely heartwarming scene.
 * Shortly after the above, Sam and  Twitch have a rather heartwarming moment, which is also massive Ho Yay.
 * Also in the HBO series, in the finale when Al
 * Magnificent Bastard: Wynn
 * Malebolgia, too
 * Mammon beats them both hands down. Even though Malebolgia was ruler of the Eighth Sphere and referred to as "King of Hell", it is said that he was a flea in comparison to Mammon.
 * Memetic Mutation: "USE YOUR ARMOUR!!!"
 * Special Effects Failure: The movie's computer effects (The majority of which done by ILM) have not aged well since its 1997 release. Spawn's cape only appears when in use (either for dramatic effect or when he's actually using it), since it was extremely difficult to animate. Plus, 's mouth does not remotely follow the words he speaks, and Hell just looks like something out of a (sub-par, mind you) Pixar movie (an extremely dark Pixar movie for it to depict Hell, but still).
 * Spotlight-Stealing Squad: Clown, played with scenery-chewing gusto by John Leguizamo, steals the show in the movie.
 * Unfortunate Implications: Not so much in the comic (there's nothing IMPLIED about any of it), but there is a case in The Movie. Spawn comes to his home to find his wife married to Terry and is lying in their yard, when Cyan comes to offer him some candy. It makes sense that they would grab their daughter and keep her away from the strange man, but its doesn't speak well of them that once they saw this man appeared to be a homeless burn victim in severe pain, their reaction was to call the cops rather than the paramedics.
