While a case could be made for The Darkness and, I guess, Cyberforce, we all know Marc Silvestri's most famous character was the one he had the least to do with, Sara Pezzini. It's Michael Turner's signature property too, despite forming a whole company around trying to recreate his biggest splash (Fathom pun!) As much as I seemed to avoid including female characters in this jam (but ethics in comic book historical accuracy,) this one was a no-brainer. Also one of the easiest combinations of property and contributor, since Tim Vigil was the artist on the infamous adults only pornographic splatter horror super-hero comic Faust (a likely but unacknowledged influence on Spawn and maybe Shadowhawk.) Vigil likes drawing sexy bad girls in skimpy (okay, preferably no) outfits and ultra-violent anti-heroes with pokey parts (double entendre!) It turned out great and necessarily fast (Vigil's turnaround is almost always less than an hour,) so Vigil was invaluable in helping to make up for lost time. I tried to go with exclusively "new" commission artists for this jam, but Vigil was one of the two exceptions, and I had no regrets with either.

Spawn #22
by Todd McFarlane
"The Hunt" Part 2Dedicated To: Frank Miller
As for Joe Sakic, three days from now, his body will be found under the George Washington Bridge, with his hands and feet viciously severed. Decapitated. Even his genitals will be missing. The police will conduct a full investigation, but in the absence of anything identifiable about the body, will have to close the case of John Doe 1994-714. Such is the life of a trusted employee of Vito Gravano.
One of the bums he knows says our hero usually hangs out in the same four block radius. I've mapped it out already, sir.
God, no. Vito thinks I'M Terry.
Supreme #7-18 (1993-1994)

...Your lack of control over the G.A.T.E. sponsored super-team Heavy Mettle... the public... and I... distrust them... Consider the team disbanded as of this very moment!
I will bring the entire Reich-- indeed the whole of Germany to its knees until Adolph Hitler is brought to me! Know that I mean what I say-- for Thor does not make idle threats!!
Welcome to Eye On Supreme. I'm Maxine Winslow, and tonight we're talking with... the first of his super-powered generation to appear in this century.
Today everyone looks at me with suspicion-- as if they seem to have forgotten how I saved their butts in the Big One... Only to find that I'd been replaced by others--- the Youngbloods. They thought the world had outgrown me. The fools.

Thanks for the background info behind the delay. It happens. I kinda just assumed that Frank was strapped to a chair watching Dem Debate clips over and over again a la Robot Chicken, only getting a brief reprieve long enough to fire off angry tweets about his watching. pic.twitter.com/3MOJsXejHr— KSCGSF Podcast (@KyleBenning_Art) February 24, 2020
I believe the Youngblood character that ended up sold to Marvel as an MLF character is Tempohttps://t.co/DpUDUiJvAq pic.twitter.com/15sEKl5ZOW— Odell Abner Dracula (@DellDracula) February 27, 2020
