About the series
A lively revival of Will Eisner’s iconic newspaper hero, this 32-issue DC series from 2007–2009 brought The Spirit back to the streets of Central City with a mix of noir adventure and playful humor. Darwyn Cooke, a key creative force both writing and drawing, was joined by talents like Sergio Aragonés, Mark Evanier, Aluir Amâncio, and Paul Smith to craft stories that honored the character’s pulp roots while adding a fresh, modern energy. It stands as a fond, energetic tribute to one of comics’ most enduring detectives.
