The Spectre #9
In "Journal of Judgment," the Spectre bears the weight of his past, bound by the Journal of Judgement to pass sentence on souls listed within—each life a burden, each verdict a test of justice. Written by Mike Friedrich and brought to life by Jerry Grandenetti’s stark interiors, with inks by Bill Draut and letters by Ben Oda, this 1969 DC classic features a haunting cover by Nick Cardy, whose distinctive style captures the grim solemnity of the Spectre’s eternal task.
