The masked man in the blue suit and fedora holds up a newspaper boldly declaring "WANTED — THE SPIRIT — DEAD OR ALIVE," grinning with the cool confidence that made this Quality Comics hero a standout of 1940s–50s pulp adventure. Beside him, a wild-eyed figure in a red costume and oversized bear-like mask scrambles in apparent panic, making for a cover that balances menace with a touch of absurdist humor. This Summer 1954 issue — with interior work by Will Eisner and Jules Feiffer — is a fine snapshot of the series at its sharp, stylish best.
