The scary thing about the AI rollout is that I am now seeing YouTubers awkwardly-yet-confidently reading Google's AI summary as the Voice of God the same as they used to with Wikipedia.

Sigh.

Will Eisner’s The Spirit from October 10, 1943. Art by Lou Fine.

A woman sits in an electric chair while a clock behind her approaches midnight. A tear is rolling down her cheek. Instead of numbers, the Spirit’s name is spelled out on the clock.

Tetsuya Chiba’s art! The flow of the action, the impacts, the sfx lettering, and the expressions have that kinetic oomph you need for selling meaningful fights indistinguishable from a modern boom. But it’s married to the more exaggerated body language + simpler character design ethos of the era.
