This is a great story arc that really takes the Spirit into his milieu of intrigue and mafia violence and produces a story that you will like to read over again. There is a nice tribute to the Godfather in a scene where the families make peace after both families loose their progeny; peace marked by a firm embrace of the two rival camps.
The tone of the writing and the atmospheric provided by the art is so in tune with the spirit of the Spirit that I’m sure would please Will Eisner that DC has kept the tradition alive and maintained the integrity of his creation in every issue
