Homer the Happy Ghost is a fictional supernatural-humor character published by Atlas Comics, the 1950s predecessor of Marvel Comics. The title character first appeared in Homer, The Happy Ghost #1 (March 1955); although strongly resembling Casper, he possesses freckles, a Tintin-style cowlick and a halo. All of Homer's stories were written by Stan Lee and drawn by Dan DeCarlo. The title lasted until 1958. In addition, Atlas published two issues of Adventures of Homer Ghost (June & Aug. 1957.)
In 1969, Marvel revived the character and title for four issues, lasting until May 1970.
