Casper & Nightmare #44

Harvey Comics' long-running duo is back in this 1973 installment, with Casper the Friendly Ghost looking wide-eyed and concerned as he points toward Nightmare the Galloping Ghost, who rears up dramatically with a mysterious burst of steam or smoke rising between them and a red saddle sitting on the ground below. The spine also teases appearances by Spooky, Wendy, and the Ghostly Trio, making this a packed package of Harvey's beloved supernatural cast. At just 20 cents, Casper and Nightmare #44 captures that warm, gently spooky charm that made these characters a staple of kids' comic racks throughout the early '70s.
