Where we Spawnin', boys?

Spawn is officially part of the Mortal Kombat 11 roster, but if creator Todd McFarlane has his way, the comic character will make his way to another popular franchise. In an interview with Comicbook.com, McFarlane says he's had discussions about the character making it over to Fortnite, but it doesn't sound like anything is official just yet. Check out his full comments on the matter below.

"We make the toys. So, I talked to the creators up there. And we've had the conversation. I showed them that it's not just Spawn, there's dozens of Spawns. Right? Between what's been in the comic book and what's been in the toy lines, right? Literally dozens and dozens of looks of which you could then do different skins for each one of them. Right? So, think about what they're doing with Mortal Kombat for one figure, right?

You got all these sort of iterations of it. So, yeah, I had the conversations with them. Might've been a little bit of bad timing because although they weren't able to say at that point, soon thereafter the Marvel characters came out and then the DC characters, so I go, 'OK.' You got to know where your place is in any kind of room. So, the big boys had gotten in the room ahead of me. So, maybe once all that enthusiasm goes down, they're looking for some other stuff, I think Spawn may be something that makes sense, depending on what's happening with Spawn out in the marketplace and other places will help drive it one way or the other maybe."
