The Spirit's appeal was his Mike Hammer/Everyman cool.

If Lions Gate wants the next comic book hero to bring to the big screen here he is..."DEAD MAN" Guaranteed to be a box office hit just as I'm sure "IRONMAN" will be once it hits theatres. Deadman is a ghost, formerly a circus trapeze artist named Boston Brand who performed under the name Deadman. When Brand is murdered during a trapeze performance by a mysterious assailant known only as the Hook, his spirit is given the power to possess any living being by a Hindu goddess named Rama Kushna, in order to search for his murderer and obtain justice. It is established in Green Arrow Vol 4, #4, that Deadman believes Rama is the supreme being of the universe. Check him out here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Deadman Oh, one more thing.

I doubt it will follow the comic book much if any other than the title so it will be a flop in my opinion. Too bad. :( I have to agree with McFly,

This poster is NOTHING like the SPIRIT. It's too bad that so many have yet to experience the comics; because if they did, there would be such an uproar of protest how Frank Miller is mucking this up.
