The Spirit #4
In "Lucky Chance," The Spirit dives into a high-stakes international conspiracy as a gangster crew in Istanbul aids Nazi operatives in smuggling stolen gold out of Germany. Written by Bill Woolfolk and brought to life with dynamic art by Lou Fine—his signature style sharp and precise, inks by Robin King adding depth—this 1980 issue delivers a taut, atmospheric tale where the hero’s bold intervention leads to a dangerous capture. The cover, also by Fine and King, captures the tension with a striking, shadowed composition.
