That's great actually, Alex's Trip.
I did a couple of comics too when I was younger. Like many, I drew Star Wars and D&D-type fantasy art stuff, but I did a few books on a character called Goofus the Ghost (how I wish I had those) and another called Phaethon which was like the Thundarr the Barbarian cartoon mixed-in with Gamma World rpg game a bit. Goofus was this ghost that had a top hat, gloves, and shoes could be seen under his sheet.
I remember a Goofus the Ghost (did those really young... second grade mostly, 2-5 overall) where he went to an amusement park and one (that I'm sure I wish I still had) where Goofus the Ghost went to cash a check. I remember it as being rather hysterical. I was reading all the Peanuts books (strip compilations) at the time.
To self: I think Wanda Mallette sent them in to some people.
The illustration was technically better in Phaethon, I remember that much. I was older by then (grades 6-7).
