In "The Spirit of 1776!", a rare Limited Collectors' Edition from 1976, DC delivers a nostalgic deep dive into America’s revolutionary past through a fictional 1770s newspaper. Written by E. Nelson Bridwell and brought to life with period-accurate art by Al Plastino and Fred Ray—both inks and pencils—this bonus feature captures pivotal moments like the Declaration of Independence and Cornwallis’s surrender, all rendered with a timeless charm. The cover, also by Fred Ray, perfectly frames the historical tone with its evocative, vintage-inspired design.
