The Friendly Ghost, Casper #189

Harvey Comics' long-running series brings its cheerful little ghost to a wonderfully silly scene in this 1976 issue — Casper floats beside a freshly spun spiderweb, cheerfully reassuring a sneezing, red-hatted figure soaking their feet in a bucket that the web will be finished "in spider your cold!" The cover's warm humor and bright green palette capture exactly the gentle, good-natured charm that made Casper such an enduring presence on newsstands, and the promise of "The Guiding Light" story inside only sweetens the deal.
