The Friendly Ghost, Casper #121

Harvey Comics' long-running series for younger readers brings Casper the Friendly Ghost to a mountain setting in this 1968 issue, where the little ghost — clutching a brown satchel — swoops upside-down through a rainy, rocky chasm. Below him, a startled hiker in a red cap clings white-knuckled to his ice axe, backpack and coil of rope in tow, clearly not expecting this kind of company on the cliffs. It's a cheerful, funny cover that captures exactly the gentle chaos Casper tends to leave in his wake.
