☆ Be the first to review + Add to your collection — Join freeThis collection brings together several stories from Will Eisner's classic The Spirit series, focusing on the dangerous and alluring women who cross paths with the masked detective. Featuring tales that highlight femme fatales like P'Gell, Sand Saref, and others, the volume showcases Eisner's innovative storytelling and noir-inspired art. Originally published as part of DC's Spirit archives, this trade paperback offers a curated look at the character's most memorable female adversaries and allies.
In "The Kiss of Death," the Spirit is drawn into a web of deception when Inspector Guillotine seeks his help to catch the elusive Don Macabre, a criminal who seems to anticipate every move. As the investigation deepens, the Spirit uncovers a shocking truth: the Inspector’s fiancée, Plaster of Paris, may be more entangled with the gang than she lets on. Written, drawn, and inked by Will Eisner, with colors by Jules Feiffer and Jamison and lettering by Abe Kanegson, this 2008 issue features a cover by Eisner that captures the tension of a world where trust is the deadliest trap.
In "Saree," a young woman named Saree Raymond navigates the shifting tides of her world after her father announces his engagement to P'Gell. With the sudden death of her strict headmistress, Miss Vitriola, Saree finds herself caught between her resistance to change and the unsettling presence of a new figure who mirrors her in every way—Silk Satin.
In "The School for Girls," P'Gell turns to the Spirit when she begins to suspect that one of her past victims is targeting her husband—and framing her for the crime. With Saree by her side, the mystery deepens as old secrets and dangerous alliances come to light.
When Mike Caliban attempts a heist at the Wilder Mansion on the day of Wild Rice Wilder’s wedding, the heiress surprises him by begging to join the getaway—she’s tired of a life of luxury and craves something real. With Commissioner Dolan closing in and The Spirit watching from the shadows, the night spirals into a chase that blurs lines between thief and treasure, duty and desire.
When Inspector Gillotine enlists the Spirit to track down the elusive Don Macabre, the case takes a personal turn—especially when the Spirit uncovers a secret tied to the Inspector’s fiancée, Plaster of Paris, whose loyalty may lie not with justice, but with the criminal she loves.
