Spooky #134

Harvey Comics' "tuff little ghost" takes center stage in this 1973 entry, where Spooky — bowler hat tumbling off his head — grips a fishing rod in wide-eyed alarm as a very toothy, very angry pink fish leaps straight at him from the water's edge. The cover portraits along the left side round out the Harvey family, spotlighting Poil, Casper, the Ghostly Trio, and Wendy alongside our rattled hero. It's a wonderfully silly snapshot of the charm that made this series a staple of kids' comic racks in its day.
