Let's enjoy a great character who has gone sadly unappreciated here: Wendy, The Good Little Witch! Like Casper, with whom stories are often shared, Wendy is simply and purely good. The following stories demonstrate her good heart beautifully and also exemplify what I love about Harvey Comics from this period: They are beautifully done stories, with magnificent cartooning, done for kids without the slightest wink to adults. The following artwork, including the cover, is all Warren Kremer - one of the all-time greats (Wendy, The Good Little Witch No. 10, February, 1962).
Enjoy also the following two pages of advertisements. I see about four things I want.

Thanks for sharing this! I remember reading these stories when I was a kid. I never knew the artist's name until recently (probably learned it here), but I totally agree that he was a great artist for the Harvey characters. These two stories are both very clever and a little off-beat. I'm sure a good little witch must be a tough character to write, but these stories really effectively convey her personality, particularly the cartoonist story. Although I'm sure that even without Wendy's magic wand interfering, a cartoonist would have a hard time keeping Wendy from getting out of character--at least for long.
Will we get the other two stories in this issue any time soon? Some great memories here! Reply Delete
Scarcrow: Since you asked, I'll post the Casper and Spooky story included in this issue next post. I loved that first story and wonder if it might be based on one of Harvey's artists wishing to jazz Wendy up a bit, but finding her character simpy too good to mess with.

After the ship performs a tune, it dissipates into three floating balls of light. One of them forms into a ghost who initially appears as an alien, but thereafter, is revealed to be Fatso (Jess Harnell), a member of The Ghostly Trio, who releases gas which hits the scoreboard, causing a shower of sparks, also sparking terror. The other two ghosts of the trio, Stinky (Bill Farmer), and Stretch (Jim Ward), join in, causing panic in the park, as everybody scatters. Casper (Jeremy Foley), a shy, friendly ghost (nephew of the three ghosts), arrives, attempting to settle the rattled crowd, but the people are just as scared. The park is eventually empty, as Casper's uncles plan a vacation. Meanwhile, a dark character named Desmond Spellman (George Hamilton) is settled down in his mansion. He holds the record of being the greatest warlock to ever exist, until the Oracle (Pauly Shore) tells him that in the future Wendy the Good Little Witch (Hilary Duff) will be the greatest witch to ever exist, and so he plots to kill the "little mall rat", with the advised "Mystic Abyss". He creates two warlock enforcers: Jules (Richard Moll), and Vincent (Vincent Schiavelli) with a mix of chemicals in a blender, exposure to thunder and lightning, and a spillover his catwalk balcony. He assigns them to go to Wendy's address (which the oracle printed on Desmonds' fax machine) and bring her to him if she comes near him. They prove what they think is a simple task by firing their hand guns through the wall.

I was extremely disappointed with "Monster Jam Pirate Scurse". The graphics were outdated and the controls were clunky. It was difficult to navigate the game and I often found myself crashing into obstacles or getting stuck in corners. The gameplay was repetitive and lacked any real excitement.

I found "Monster Jam Pirate Scurse" to be quite underwhelming. The game had potential with its pirate theme and monster trucks, but it fell short in execution. The levels were too linear and lacked variety. The in-app purchases were also quite annoying and seemed necessary to progress in the game. The visuals were average at best and the sounds were repetitive. Overall, I think there are better monster truck games out there that offer a more enjoyable experience.
