Not plot holes but things I've wondered

1. If Spawn was supposed to lead Hell's Army and be a big part of the plan then why didn't Clown train him to use his powers instead of just pissing him off? I think he could of done both.

2. Why would Clown need Spawn to kill Jason just to release the virus? Wouldn't it of been easier to have Clown wait till it was time and just do it himself? Spawn still could of been used to lead the Army to Heaven's gate if he was trained to do so.

3. If Spawn can remove the device that would set off the virus then why not kill Jason right after? There was no longer threat to the world at that point.

4. Why did the little boy go back to the alley instead of having Wanda and Terry help him find a home? Especially since the boys dad was dead anyway.

5. If Hell already gave Spawn his powers, then why couldn't they of simply taken them away?

6. How is it that this Spawn was more powerful then all the other Spawns in hell? I'm talking about the scene in Hell where he shoots green stuff at them and they die.

7. When Someone from Hell dies in the real world do they simply go back to Hell and can come back? Would this mean that Spawn would be able to come back as well if they cut off his head?

8. I was going to ask why Jason was dumb enough to get the device implanted in the first place since there was ways he could of died even if not by assassination. Or if someone didn't know he had the device. But I figure his ego probably thought he was untouchable.

This is not complaints just questions I had after watching the movie.

1. Who knows if Clown even knew that much about Spawn's powers, his job was to get Spawn to kill Wynn.

2. Apparently they wanted Spawn to to be the one to kill most of mankind so they'd have his soul. I know, it doesn't make much sense but there it is.

3. I guess because Wynn hadn't actually killed Wanda and he'd just be handing Malebolgia another asset.

4. I don't think the dad was dead. They took him away in an ambulance.

5. Because it doesn't work that way.

6. They're the army grunts, he's the general.

7. The movie doesn't specify but it seems to me that if you cut off the head the necroplasm is pulled back to Hell where Malebolgia can reshape you however he wants or just let you die "completely". In some Spawn comics they basically say if Spawn uses up his powers but fails Malebolgia's plans for him, he would be eaten by the army to strengthen them.
