Asylum, Part Three is the third issue of the Spike: Asylum comic book miniseries. Written by Brian Lynch and illustrated by Franco Urru, it was originally published on November 8, 2006, by IDW Publishing.
Synopsis[]
The one friend Spike has made at the Mosaic Asylum has been staked. Bad for her — but even worse for the guy who staked her. It's an all-out prison-style battle royale as Spike gets revenge the only way he knows how — with insults, fists and sharp objects. But when Mosaic's dirty little secret comes to light, it looks like Spike is going to have to call in some outside help to save the day.
