Will Eisner's The Spirit Archives #3

Feb 2001 · DC · 49.95 USD; 82.95 CAD
“Building Strong Character”

"Building Strong Character" is a standout entry in Will Eisner's The Spirit Archives #3, showcasing Eisner’s masterful storytelling and distinctive artistry as both writer and artist. When the Spirit cancels on Ellen, she takes matters into her own hands by hiring a female impersonator to impersonate him at a ball—leading to a twisty, character-driven tale that’s as sharp as it is unexpected. The cover, also by Eisner, captures the story’s playful yet charged atmosphere with his signature style.
