Spawn #16, written by Grant Morrison with art by Greg Capullo, is a key issue from December 1993 that introduces the Anti-Spawn (later called the Redeemer) as Heaven transforms Jason Wynn into a soldier to fight Spawn. The story, titled "Reflections (Part 1)," details how Heaven, concerned by Spawn's power, selects Wynn and imbues him with the "Elemental Fire of Heaven," setting up a major conflict.
