I didn't enjoy the animated series if its the one I have seen (Spawn voiced by Keith David?). Rather typical blood splatter junk that had none of spawns more challenging elements. I read the early issues of spawn and I enjoyed it more or less, he was an interesting experiment, though I think it would have worked better with a definite end in the plan. Though we can say that about all most every comic published I suppose.
Personally, I recently read through the "Wanted" TPB. Something of a piss of shit really. At times it was interesting, and there was some very snappy writing. For the most part it was a hypocritical piece of sillyness. I can appreciate the idea of indulging raw excess, but then you have characters you have gone further along that self-indulgent Id satisfaction road then almost any normal person would, attempting to pass moral judgment on other more psycho ... psychos. Not very compelling stuff.
