Hanna-Barbera the Funky Phantom

Published by Western Publishing from 1972 to 1975, this 13-issue comic series brought the ghostly antics of the Funky Phantom from the Hanna-Barbera cartoon to the page. Writer Frank Hill, along with artists Roger Armstrong, Jack Manning, and Hill himself, chronicled the adventures of three teenagers and their Revolutionary War-era ghost companion, Mudsy, as they solved spooky mysteries. A lighthearted entry in the wave of 1970s animated tie-ins, it captured the era's playful supernatural comedy for young readers.
