The Spirit #8/28/1949

In "White Cloud," the shadow of power shifts in Central City as Mayor Dolan’s authority is tested by Monica Veto’s grip on the City Council—yet the real question lingers: how does Charlie Whitecloud, a man seemingly out of nowhere, hold the city’s true reins? Written by Jules Feiffer and brought to life with sharp, expressive art by Will Eisner—both inks and pencils—with lettering by Abe Kanegson, this 1949 installment from the Register and Tribune Syndicate delivers a moody, character-driven mystery that keeps the city’s secrets close.
