What do you think happened to Spike's mother?


I know that she isn't mentioned in the series, but I always had a headcannon Spike was momma's baby and he'd still see his mother if he can. I don't think that she is dead, but she may have kicked Spike out of the house to be more independent.

Are you ready or not? It's only up the street. Everybody's dancing. Everybody's on the beat.

I always pictured him as an orphan from a fairly young age. He lived for the syndicate, until he no longer could.

I did it. I saved us all. I'm Chunk Iron Chest and I won!

I thought the same as well. Criminal Organizations often attract wayward youth they can mold into criminals. People from a healthy family dont go off and join a mafia/yakuza type of outfit.

Maybe she died?

His official bio in the 'extra session' book says she was killed in some kind of incident between syndicates when he was 10, which did indeed leave him orphaned.

Oh, really? That's unfortunate.:( I wonder if that's what made him hate children.

Does the book say anything about his dad?
