Spooky #77

Harvey Comics' "the tuff little ghost" floats into issue #77 with a Halloween charm that's hard to resist — Spooky tips his bowler hat with a grin while clutching a jack-o'-lantern "Trick or Treat" bag, much to the shrieking horror of a pearl-wearing woman on her balcony. The crescent moon glowing over the city rooftops behind him sets the perfect spooky-but-cheerful mood that made this series a favorite for young readers in 1963. With "This Wacky World" on the bill, this December issue promises the kind of lighthearted mischief Spooky delivers best.
