I was going to assume it was some weird religious anti-abortion thing, but if that was the case then wouldn't the babies be more sympathetic and not scary murder-faced gremlins?

Spawn is Albert Francis "Al" Simmons. Born in Detroit, Michigan, he is the second oldest of three children born to Bernard Simmons, a traveling salesman, and Esther Simmons, a devil worshipper. Al Simmons is a very intelligent, physically strong, and highly decorated officer in the U.S. Marine Corps, attaining the rank of Lieutenant Colonel while serving with Force Recon. He later joins the Secret Service, becomes a high-ranking official, and is recruited by the Central Intelligence Agency. Simmons later joins the U.S. Security Group, an umbrella agency encompassing the CIA, NSA, and NSC, commanded by Director Jason Wynn, and becomes a capable assassin.

During a mission in Botswana, Wynn grows tired of Simmons' increasing sense of morality. As a result of this, Simmons' friend and partner Bruce Stinson (codename Chapel) is secretly hired to kill him. Simmons is burned to death and sent to Hell.[21][22][23] Making a deal with the devil Malebolgia, Simmons agrees to become a Hellspawn. After swearing to serve Malebolgia, he is allowed to see his wife Wanda one last time. Malebolgia returns Simmons to the living realm with a severely burned body, and a demonic guardian named the Violator.[24]

Simmons, now a Hellspawn, returns to Earth with a lack of understanding of his previous identity. He wanders in a state of confusion with only vague memories of his former life, including his own name, his marriage to Wanda and the fact that he was once deceased. Spawn occasionally experiences painful flashbacks and eventually remembers his deal with Malebolgia. Using CIA files, he tracks down his wife and finds her married to his former best friend Terry, with whom she has a daughter named Cyan.[22] He realizes five years have passed since his death.

Spawn runs into a fellow Hellspawn, who informs him that his powers are fueled by Necroplasm and that once they are depleted, he will return to Hell. Not wanting to return to Hell, Spawn attempts to find a new purpose in life while using as little power as possible. Spawn is thrust into several antihero adventures, taking down street gangs and organized crime in New York City. Battling against various criminals, Spawn finds a new purpose in stopping evil.

It's about an old man with human growth hormone deficiency who collects unwanted funko pops that have come to life in an enchanted junkyard

I had to look it up and while I won't spoil it I will note Shaun Hutson has 120 books credited on goodreads. As someone whose been working on a first draft for the better part of a decade I respect the mans work ethic even if his work is not to my taste

Usually books that are clearly seventh rate have equally bad design and art. If that's actually real - the mismatch is strange. I'm not saying the font is good choice and the art is particularly good but they do catch your eye. The font even curves around the demon baby's skull.
