Boy Commandos #16

A grinning, top-hatted phantom swirls out of a whirlwind above a spooky rooftop neighborhood, sending two terrified figures scrambling across the yard — it's a wonderfully eerie image that captures the playful-spooky spirit DC was delivering in 1946. The cover, penciled by Curt Swan and inked by George Klein, promises what the banner calls "the funniest Boy Commandos yarn of the year" with the story "Brooklyn Haunts a House." A charming ten-cent treat that blends humor and haunting in equal measure.
