The grim hero known as The Specter is the earthly embodiment of the spirit of righteous vengeance against evil. One of its earlier hosts was the police detective James Corrigan. Corrigan was murdered by criminals whist on his way to visit his fiancé. The extreme rage Corrigan felt over his murder prevented his soul from being able to ascend to the afterlife and he was sent back by mystical forces to act as the ‘voice of justice.’ Corrigan’s body was resurrected and he could now transform into a ghostly figure with a flowing green cloak and near omnipotent bevy of supernatural powers. Now known as The Specter, Corrigan hunted down evil-doers and disposed of them in a range of gruesome and macabre fashions. The Specter would go on to help form the first iteration of The Justice Society and also served with The All-Star Squadron during the Second World War. The Spirit would later relinquish his guise as Jim Corrigan and continued to act as an agent of justice and revenge up through the modern age. His soul eventually tired of his quest for vengeance and Corrigan was allowed to move on to the next plain. At this point the role of The Specter was handed over to Hal Jordan, the one time Green Lantern who had finally freed himself of the deadly influence of the entity Parallax. Jordan acted as the new Spirit for a brief time until he too found release from his desire for vengeance and was allowed to return to life in his previous form. At this point the spirit found a new host in Gotham Detective Crispin Allen who had been deceived and murdered by a colleague. Allen became the new Specter and continued on the endless fight against evil. Jim Corrigan has once more become The Specter in the rebooted post ReBirth DC Universe. This new version of The Specter is less powerful than his previous form, but still an extremely powerful magic user and frequent aide to the Justice League Dark. Versions of Jim Corrigan have featured in the television series Constantine (portrayed by actor Emmett Scanlan) and in the Arrowverse (where he was played by actor Stephen Lobo). The hero first appeared in the pages of More Fun Comics #52 (1940).
