The Friendly Ghost, Casper #102

Casper glides through a wintry cloudscape in this 1967 Harvey Comics charmer, sporting bright red mittens, a flowing red scarf, and a pair of golden ice skates as he spins gracefully above a sparkling, icy backdrop. Issue #102 pairs that cheerful cover energy with the intriguingly titled story "When Time Stood Still," hinting at the kind of whimsical, imaginative fun that made this series a staple of kids' comic racks. At just 12 cents, it's a warm snapshot of Harvey's friendly ghost at his most delightful.
