* ExiledFromContinuity: Chapel, who was responsible for Al Simmons' death and transformation into Spawn, wasn't allowed to be used in the movie or later comics. The reason was due to Image's creator-owned policy, where any character is owned by the person who created them. While Chapel plays heavily in Spawn's backstory, he was ''not'' considered to have been created by Todd [=McFarlane=], but rather Creator/RobLiefeld, because he debuted ''before'' Spawn in ''Comicbook/{{Youngblood}}'' #1 (keep in mind that at the time Image attempted a SharedUniverse like Marvel and DC, which didn't exactly pan out). Liefeld was fired from Image in 1996, taking the rights to Chapel with him, and making the character unavailable to all.
