The Friendly Ghost, Casper #224

Even the world's most famous ghost has to stay squeaky clean — on the cover of this October 1982 Harvey issue, Casper gleefully splashes about in a fluffy pink cloud turned bathtub, cheerfully declaring, "This is the day I ar-rain-ge for my bath!" It's a perfectly charming, pun-filled scene that showcases the gentle humor Harvey Comics consistently brought to Casper's long-running series. With the intriguing story "The Evil Planet (Part 1)" waiting inside, issue #224 balances lighthearted cover fun with the promise of a more adventurous tale.
