    Plot Outline: A mercenary is killed, but comes back from Hell as a reluctant soldier of the Devil.
    Plot: An assassin named Al Simmons is double-crossed and murdered by his evil boss Jason Wynn. Al makes a deal with the devil and returns to earth as Spawn to see his wife. He is ordered by the devil's minion, The Clown, to kill Wynn. Wynn has made a deal with the clown too and is suppose to destroy the world with a deadly virus that will help start Armageddon and allow Hell to attack Heaven. Spawn must choose between Good & Evil.

    Movie Quotes: Cogliostro: The war between heaven & hell depends on the choices we make, and those choices require sacrafice. That's the test.
