The
Spirit is a fictional American masked crime - fighter, created by
writer-artist Will Eisner in 1940. The
Spirit chronicled the adventures of a masked vigilante who fought crime
with the blessing of the city's police commissioner Dolan, an old
friend. Despite the Spirit's origin as a detective named Denny Colt,
his real identity was virtually unmentioned again and for all intents
and purposes he was simply "The Spirit". The stories ranged through a
wide variety of styles, from straightforward crime drama and noir to
lighthearted adventure, from mystery and horror to comedy and love
stories, often with hybrid elements that twisted genre and expectations.
