The Spectre in development as a Fox TV series
The comic book series centers on Jim Corrigan, a former hard-nosed cop who is stuck in the afterlife. He must return to Earth to hunt down criminals on behalf of a mysterious entity known only as "The Voice."
The character first appeared in the February 1940 edition of More Fun Comics and was featured in the animated short DC Showcase: The Spectre, which was attached to the DVD release Justice League: Crisis On Two Earths.
Brandon Camp is writing the pilot script for The Spectre and will executive produce alongside Bill Gerber. DC Entertainment and Warner Bros. Television will produce the pilot.

I agree with everyone else on this story, if done right could be awesome however it will be on Fox and Fox doesn't like to keep a good thing going. Just ask Joss Whedon

I like the idea, but I just can't see it airing long on FOX. It would be better off on FX or even Syfy.

Instead of using the original Spectre, they should be using Crispus Allen. That way, DC can use not only Spectre stories, but show tales from Gotham Central in flashback form. By doing this, they can utilize a supernatural entity while also giving him a foundation in reality.
