About this Collection

Volume 13 of Will Eisner's The Spirit Archives collects the daily and Sunday Spirit newspaper strips from July 7 through December 29, 1946. This period features classic adventures of Denny Colt (the Spirit) alongside supporting characters like Commissioner Dolan, Ellen Dolan, Ebony White, and femme fatales P'Gell and Silk Satin, as well as early appearances by the villainous Mr. Carrion and the grotesque Zitzbath Zark. The volume continues DC's comprehensive hardcover reprint series preserving Eisner's groundbreaking storytelling and visual innovations from the mid-1940s.

In "Dulcet Tone," Will Eisner delivers a sharp, darkly comic twist as Coot Gallus—unlikely political newcomer and write-in candidate—unexpectedly secures a seat in the 4th district. Suddenly, every shady figure in town has a reason to eliminate him, not because he’s dangerous, but because he might just be honest. With Eisner’s signature storytelling and John Spranger’s vivid art, this issue blends satire and suspense in a way only the master of the form could pull off.
