I recall seeing this issue many years ago. I was with my father and tagging along as he bought the paper and did not have the chance to peruse it. I recall SuperSpook pushing something in this one-shot's cover. Now, after 60 years.... |

Weird but not without some entertainment value. Super Spook is like Casper on steroids, but his origin is never explained, and the fact that he's a "ghost" isn't very relevant. The funny animal strips are all reprints. |
