Character of the month Spooky the tuff little ghost.

I know I dont't post a character every month, but I don't care just realised I posted a comic with hot stuff and spooky but I never introduced the latter..... some people (mainly casper's scare school fans) may be wondering Who the hell is this character? is this another casper ripoff? So I decided to write a post about him...
Spooky is casper's michievous cousin that actually likes to scare humas, which makes him pretty much casper's opposite, pretty much what woulf happen if Hot stuff and casper had a baby with a brooklin accent.
But actually Spooky is one of the oldest characters in casper franchice in fact he has been arround nearly the same time than the ghostly trio,  spooky  debuted in casper the friendly ghost #10 in 1953,,
Afteer a pair of years appearing in casper comics Harvey decided spooky was popular enough to star his own comic:

Spooky in the new adventures of casper
 Spooky also apeared in a lot of casper media, he appeared in some of the best episodes of the original casper show,  april's fool  episode from that show,  is one of the most memorable spooky appearences, Spooky also was one of the main characters in the 90's hit series; the spooktacular new aventures of casper,, despite being auscent in the movie which this cartoon is based on he became one of the funniest characters of the show, later he appearend in casper's haunted christmas His last appearence was as a minor character in the comic book "casper and the spectrals" from 2010.

 I must admit the little rascal is one of my favorite characters in casper franchice, he is mean, mischevous, loves to scare humans and he always gets into funny situations, but the best part of the character is his relationship with  his girlfriend known as pearl aka poil their character interaction is one of the funniest and wackiest in casper series ... Sure they had a ton of couple problems, even  spooky  tried date other girls, but  in the end they make a really good pairing.
Name; Spooky
Species; Ghost
Powers and abilities: Flight, invisibility, intangibility, shape-shiffting, super scream.
First appearance: casper the friendly ghost #10 (1953)

Spooky and Hot stuff in "A menace from mars"

Today I will do  something different, I will post a scan of a classic comic book of the havey characters, this is a good oportunity to post a story starring  two  of my favorite characters in casper franchise, Hot stuff the little devil and spooky tha tuff little ghost (casper's cousin).

Spooky was lucky he is ghost,  otherwise that giant iceberge from outer space would have killed him, I mean look at the size of that crater,

KIds dont do this, when an UFO from outer space lands  over your head, pressing  the red buttons is never a good idea 

I know the comics are old, but did really people think aliens looked  like that? the first one is just a dude wearing a viking helmet, well the second one is a bit less patetic, but it looks lile the typical ogres from harvey comics.

wait, aren't ghost uncorporeal? How can they be frozen by an ordinary alien weapon designed for mundane beings? Nobody knows, but the biggest mystery, is the "boo" being turned to crystals What kind of avanced technology is that?



Wait Is pearl using a plant as a phone?  Forget about alien technology! the enchanted forest has way more advanced stuff.



Blasting those aliens to mars sure puts spooky on superman's power level, but I am more suprised of how Ghost are able to eat.. I mean they have not organs to digest food, also at least Hot stuff and charma can make babies, but I am not so sure about spooky and pearl, anyway the last panel is a really cute escene of "puppy love".
