About the series
Will Eisner revived his legendary masked detective for two oversized issues from Harvey Comics in 1966–1967, returning Denny Colt—the Spirit—to the crime-ridden streets of Central City. Eisner handled both writing and art, bringing his signature cinematic storytelling and dynamic, shadow-drenched visuals to a format that allowed for experimental layouts and longer narratives. Though brief, this short-lived series stands as a late-career showcase of Eisner’s mastery, bridging his classic newspaper work with the evolving comic book landscape of the mid-1960s.
