History: In 1876 Jeremiah Smith was one of the biggest and best miners working the Canadian gold rush, a kind-hearted giant of a man, well liked by everyone, especially children. However, when a violent storm caused part of Yellowrock Mountain to collapse, local children were caught within a crumbling cavern and Jeremiah sacrificed his own life to save them. Awarded eternal life as a reward for his actions, nearly eighty years later his ghost broke free to find the world much changed. However, he still knew right from wrong, so he set about helping those in need, and stopping those who would cause others harm. Invisible and inaudible to the living, those he interacts remain unaware of his presence, though they are sometimes confused when he lifts something, making the object or person appear to fly through the air.

Comments: Super Spook only appeared in three Cor! Annuals - 1975, 1976 and 1978.
