Item Description
Here's the very first issue of SPOOKY SPOOKTOWN, an occasional 68-page 'HARVEY GIANT' featuring 'The Tuff Little Ghost', who was created as a rascally counterpart to the sweetness of his studio-mate, CASPER THE FRIENDLY GHOST. SPOOKY, the freckled, derby-wearing, mischievous ghost, debuted in his own comic book in 1955, and by 1961 had earned the right to a bigger showcase in 'SPOOKTOWN', along with his girlfriend POIL, antagonists THE GHOSTLY TRIO (CASPER's uncles!), NIGHTMARE the ghostly stallion, and WENDY the Good Little Witch (along with her aunts, Thelma, Velma and Zelma!).Here in SPOOKY SPOOKTOWN #1 you get 20 stories of varying length from 1 to 5 pages, by artists like Warren Kremer, Howie Post, and Steve Muffatti.
Harvey Comics were huge sellers in the 1950s and '60s, with characters like Casper, Richie Rich, Little Audrey, Herman and Catnip and Sad Sack - all with fun gentle stories and solid artwork.
SPOOKY SPOOKTOWN ran for 66 issues until 1976.
This is a dandy copy of SPOOKY SPOOKTOWN that won't scare you with its price! It has 68 supple pages, with no tears or pieces missing, and just a few creases to the front cover. The binding is strong and the spine is square. The interior pages are remarkably clean and colorful , without much toning for a 62-year old comic. We'll call it a 4.0 VG but you might say it looks better than that. Overstreet says $26 for this issue in this condition --- but we think we can part with it for just $15!
It's the only one available here on HipComic!
And our customary L•O•W shipping charge is almost SCARY!
