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 30!



Issue 40!



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.



Issue 70!



Check out Nightmare's expression on issue 80'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!

Give-A-Show Fridays: Magilla Gorilla and Peter Potamus!

Cool Stuff: Original Comic Art!

We start off this installment with page 42 from Marvel Preview #12, by Herb Trimpe - I'm guessing this is the magazine version of the title?



The same theory applies to page 14 from issue 13, by Klaus Janson!



Next, John Romita's cover for Marvel Spotlight #17!



Here's Frank Brunner's cover for Marvel Treasury Edition #6!



Here's page 22 from Marvel Team-Up #29, by Jim Mooney!



Up next, here's page 6 from Master Comics #9, and I believe that's by Ed Smalle! Here's more from Master Comics, a complete Nyoka story from issue 118!










I never get to post enough Metal Men art... here's the cover to issue 34, by Mike Sekowsky!






Here's Jack Kirby, with a couple of pages from Mister Miracle #17!



Page 2 from Master of Kung Fu #105!



Here's page 3!

And finally, here's some original art from the Marvel Comics Gum I believe I've posted package pictures of in a "Cool Stuff" posting...







Not sure why so many Hulk ones came up for sale at once... Anyway, you can probably see why the series didn't continue very long!
