Casper, the Dead Baby, Pt. 1.
Sigh. I tried to scan Kaspar, the Dead Baby, but ran into a lot of problems.
For one thing, the originals I have are much too big for the scanner I have access to - they're 11x17. I reduced them on a digital copier beforehand, but the reduced copies had lot a lot of detail and were still too large for the scanner. But I didn't realize that until I was actually trying to scan them.
I ended up having to scan them in two pieces each, mostly, but the images just wouldn't join up properly - it's a fairly cheap scanner. The first page was the only one that fit completely in a single scan.
This is frustrating, to put it mildly! If anyone has any suggestions, please let me know. Meanwhile, here's a very poor rendition of the first page. Notice that a LOT of detail is missing - for example, you can't see "The Dead Baby" under the name "Kaspar" at all.

YOUR KASPAR PROBLEMS
(Anonymous) 2004-10-06 03:30 am (UTC)(link)the copies you recieved were reproduced from the only available source at Marvel Comics, namely the original issue of CRAZY magazine from their archives. The pages are yellowed and have not aged well, so unless you spent some time cleaning the ppages up in photoshop, you are basically pooched. Ah, well, at least you gave it a shot.
