The Spirit Archives
In 2000, DC Comics Inc., publishers of the new monthly The Spirit series, embarked on an ambitious program to reprint for the very first time, the complete Spirit series — from 1940-1952 — in archival, hardcover editions. Released as Will Eisner's The Spirit Archives, the series also features introductions from eminent comic creators and critics. The archives are now complete and run for 26 volumes. It also features The Spirit daily newspaper strips and any Spirit material published since the initial 1940-1952 run.
In 2009, Dark Horse Comics also collected The Spirit: The New Adventures into a single volume to compliment the Archives.
