The Spirit, created by Will Eisner, and The Rocketeer, created by Dave Stevens, are two of the most beloved characters in the history of comics. Now, these two great pulp-inspired heroes meet for the very first time! A Central City Councilman disappears and is found dead in Los Angeles. Commissioner Dolan, along with Denny Colt (AKA The Spirit) and his daughter Ellen in tow, treks out to the City of Angels to investigate. Meanwhile, Cliff Secord (The Rocketeer) consoles his sweetheart Betty… who is traumatized after accidentally discovering the politicians body!

Reviews

Who would have thought that a team-up between DC Comics and IDW could deliver so much fun! Issue one delivers us the traditional misunderstanding between heroes as the Spirit invades the domain of the Rocketeer. This book is a delight as Dolan, Peevy, Ellen, and (Yumola!) Bettie join the hijinks! Mark Waid shows his love and understanding of the characters Paul Smith's art blends the styles of Eisner and Stevens well. It's 2013, where are the jetpacks you were promised young Robert? Right here, my friend. Right here.
