Splitting Image is a 2 issue comic-book limited series created in 1993 by Don Simpson (though based on an idea from Image co-founder Rob Liefeld [1] ) and published by Image Comics. It satirizes the founders of Image and their initial titles such as Savage Dragon , Spawn , Youngblood , WildC.A.T.s: Covert Action Teams , Cyber Force , Shadowhawk , Wetworks , and Pitt . Issue #2 ends with a cliffhanger ending featuring Megaton Man, Captain Everything from normalman , and Mr. Spook from Tales of the Beanworld which was continued in the Megaton Man/normalman Special. In 2017, to celebrate the publisher's 25th anniversary, Image released an 80-Giant Special collecting both issues of Splitting Image along with the Normalman/Megaton Man special and supplementary material.
