“Ye Olde Spirit of '76”

In "Ye Olde Spirit of '76," the Spirit and a town full of anxious citizens race to uncover the whereabouts of a missing Declaration of Independence, with only the ghost of the reclusive Ebeneezer Budderchern holding the key—though he’s long since passed. Written by Will Eisner and Jules Feiffer, with Eisner handling art, inks, and lettering, this 1949 tale blends historical mystery with the Spirit’s signature blend of noir intrigue and whimsy.
