For the upcoming Spawn #314, Image Comics has revealed three covers drawn by Greg Capullo and inked by Image co-founder Todd McFarlane that illustrate the creative process including pencils, to inks, to the colored version. The collectible covers, which showcase the important steps in making a comic cover, will each be available in comic shops in January 2021.

Spawn #314 will herald the return of Omega Spawn, the domineering villain who becomes a driving force in Spawn creating his super-team. Medieval Spawn also joins the issue.

“I think it will be interesting and educational for readers to be able to see all three of the big creative steps that goes into making any cover. In this particular case they’ll be treated to the astonishing penciled artwork by iconic artist Greg Capullo (Batman, Spawn, DC Metals). This is the ‘raw’ cover,” McFarlane said. “Then there will be a black and white, inked version in which I get to ink over Greg’s wonderful work. Then lastly, there will be the usual full colored version of this piece displaying the skillful hand of FCO (famed colorist of many of Capullo’s past projects (Batman, Haunt, DC Metals)).

“If you’re lucky enough to find all three and can put them on your wall it will be a spectacular looking tribute to an important part of making any comic.”

Capullo’s raw pencil cover will be a 1:50 incentive cover for retailers. Spawn #314 will be in comic shops on Wednesday, January 27. The full list of covers include cover A by Francis Mattina (Diamond Code NOV200169), cover B by Capullo and McFarlane color version (Diamond Code NOV200170), cover C by Tonton Revolver (Diamond Code NOV200171), cover D raw Capullo pencils version (Diamond Code NOV208317), and cover E by Capullo and McFarlane inks version.
