Will Eisner's The Spirit Archives #8

This volume of The Spirit Archives collects the weekly Spirit newspaper sections from January 2 through June 25, 1944, a period that finds Denny Colt (the Spirit) and his supporting cast—including Police Commissioner Dolan, his daughter Ellen Dolan, and Ebony White—navigating wartime Central City. The stories showcase Will Eisner's evolving storytelling, with inventive layouts and a mix of crime, humor, and social commentary, including the debut of the bumbling Joe Dope character. As with the entire Archives series, these are presented in full color, preserving the original Sunday page formats from Eisner's landmark run.
