Summary:

He is a legend to legions of fans. His superhero Spawn has made him the most successful comic book artist in history. He is driven, controversial, relentless in the pursuit of his dreams. Yet he lives a happy suburban life married to his childhood sweetheart--who helps him manage a multi-million dollar entertainment empire that encompasses comic books, toys, television, video games and movies. The Devil You Know: Inside the Mind of Todd McFarlane profiles this enigmatic man and explores some of his most intimate thoughts. At the pinnacle of his career, McFarlane still says his true love is baseball, not art. And he doesn't reject the rules--he just wants to play by his own.
