A waterfront murder brings The Spirit face to face with his first true love. From out of the past steps the mysterious Sand Sarif!
"Darwyn Cooke and J. Bone end their run on The Spirit with, for me, the best issue of their run. Adapted from classic Will Eisner stories, and the new series debut of Sand Saref, there’s a really touching bittersweetness to the story, as if Cooke and Bone can’t believe they’re leaving either. But man, what a note to leave on. Fistfights, curvy dames, tragedy, drama, and Darwyn Cooke going full-on Will Eisner for a flashback sequence… great stuff, and the perfect capper to a memorable and too-brief run."
