Thousands of years ago when this Spawn inhabited the Earth, the world was a very unruly place to live where hordes of evil invaders battled for control of the land. This Spawn, a heroic warrior, was forced to be as tough and ruthless as his opponents, and was often misinterpreted as an evil gladiator by those he was trying to help. Viking Spawn's costume protects him from both the elements of nature and his fierce enemies.
