I noticed that The Specter here appears to be the “classic” Jim Corrigan Specter. I’m glad to see that as that phase of the charater drawn by Jim Aparo was one of my favorite “B” list characters growing up. Both he and Phantom Stranger were real enigmas at that time, kinda like Robin Williams’ Genie in “Alladin” (“Cosmic powers…itty bitty living space.”) I also really enjoyed how Spec and the good Reverend were the “storytellers” in the Kingdom Come series. I HATED Hal Jordan as the Specter since it was painfully obvious that it was a device to keep him in the mix until he could come back as GL. I also don’t like the Crispus Allen Specter. Here’s hoping that the Blackest Night will somehow bring that charcter back toward the original concept.
I love the Spectre and might buy this just for the short. The Ostrander/Mandrake series from the 90’s is one of my favorite comics runs of all time.
