Ectokid: Who Is the Wachowskis and Clive Barker's Forgotten Marvel Hero?
Before they made The Matrix, the Wachowskis worked on an obscure Marvel Comics horror hero who was created by horror icon Clive Barker.
Although they are now known for the iconic Matrix film series, the Wachowskis once wrote for Marvel's Razorline, a short-lived imprint based on concepts created by horror icon Clive Barker. As one of many new comics lines of the '90s, Barker designed this line to reflect his particularly Lovecraftian horror-based take on superheroes.
While Barker might be known for creating horror monsters like Hellraiser's Pinhead, Razorline's characters were still very much heroes, and the imprint's youngest hero was Ectokid, a teenager who traversed into the dimension of ghosts in a series largely written by the Wachowskis
CEREBUS AS SPAWN PRINT David Sim 1992
Grade VF 8+ Price $10.00
Back in the day when Spawn was considered the vanguard of the self-publishing movement, Alan Moore, Neil Gaiman, Frank Miller and Dave Sim all teamed up with Todd McFarlane to create four successive issues of SPAWN. It was a way to show solidarity — and for the writers to make some pretty good money, given SPAWN’s huge sales at the time.
However as we all know, things that were so happy and cooperative at the time didn’t stay so. Gaiman and McFarlane had a falling out, so to speak, and Gaiman began a lawsuit over the rights to SPAWN #9 which introduced the Angela character.
According to some PR we just got, the Dave Sim issue, #10, which saw Cerebus and Spawn teaming up, is returning to print for the first time in 16 years in SPAWN ORIGINS COLLECTION: DELUXE EDITION VOL. 1 HC. Apprently McFarlane and Sim worked out a non-exclusive deal. The oversized collection will also reproduce the Moore and Miller issues….but NOT #9.
