In "Hotel Hocus Pocus," Andy takes a gamble by purchasing an old hotel in a sleepy town, only to find his plans complicated by a visiting friend, Charlie, who’s determined to boost business with a celebrity endorsement. When Charlie sets out to track down the elusive world-famous expert Glutwell P. Lushliver—rumored to be nearby—he stumbles into a clever ruse that leaves him both confused and amused. Written by Carl Fallberg and illustrated by Phil De Lara, with a cover by John Carey, this 1958 Dell comic blends classic humor with a touch of mystery, all in a 10-cent package from the golden age of comics.
