By the 10's: Casper's Ghostland!

This should be another done-in-one posting... Casper's Ghostland was one of several spin-off titles from the main Casper comic... I'm not sure what the difference was supposed to be, really, other than it was a giant-size book with all of the Casper supporting cast featured!

Here's issue 10's cover!

Here's issue 20... I suppose ghosts could use clouds to make a "snowman," couldn't they? Especially with Wendy the Witch around to help.

Issue 50... once again, the inanimate is afraid of Casper!

I wonder how Casper got the Ghostly Trio to agree to a race, given that they usually worked at odds against him, if I recall correctly? This is issue 60's cover.

How did I miss issue 90's cover when I was collecting sports comics covers? That wraps up this installment... things will heat up next time around, with Devil Kids!

  1. While I count BATMAN # 180 as the first title of my comic book collecting career, my dad had been buying me CASPER comics for several years prior to that so all of these have a special nostalgia for me. When my own son was born in '96, I grabbed a bunch of early CASPER comics out of the dollar bins of all the local comics shops for him, too!
