Origin[]
George Chance, the Ghost, knows real magic, learning it when he was raised in India as the adopted son of an immortal yogi teacher. A woman named Betty helped him. His Archenemy was time traveller Professor Fenton.
The Ghost once traveled back in time to King Arthur's court in order to stop the villainous Professor Fenton. While there he met Merlin, Morgan le Fay, Sir Kay, and King Arthur himself.

Notes[]
- The Nedor comics were renewed by Popular Library, which was eventually bought out by Fawcett Books. When Fawcett went out of business, Popular Library was sold to Warner Bros. A number of different publishers, however, are currently/have been using these characters without any lawsuits from Warner Bros., so any action over them is (probably) unlikely. They are still, however, "use at your own risk" characters.
- The Ghost was based on a Pulp character of the same name who had his own magazine.
