Homer, the Happy Ghost #2

Atlas Comics brings some lighthearted supernatural fun with this 1955 issue of Homer, the Happy Ghost, promising "All Brand-New Laughs" right on the cover. Dan DeCarlo's cover art captures the cheerful, rotund ghost Homer swooping gleefully through the sky, tangled up in the string of a pink kite being flown by a group of kids below, with pine trees and a cozy little cottage dotting the sunny scene. It's a warm, playful snapshot of the good-natured mischief that made Homer a charming corner of the Atlas lineup.
