Ghostly Haunts #24

Charlton's Ghostly Haunts #24 delivers the supernatural chills the series promises, with a Steve Ditko cover that sets an immediately unsettling tone — a luminous green specter rises from the street alongside a parked car, arms outstretched, while a terrified woman recoils in horror beneath the story title "A Man Who Was Here." Inside, writer Joe Gill and artist/inker/letterer Pat Boyette bring their own distinct vision to "The Other One!", one of the all-new stories this April 1972 issue proudly touts. For fans of early-'70s Charlton horror, this is a solid, atmospheric package.
