Tore through them as a kid. Thought I had a secret the rest of the world didn't know about. The idea of the one wizard type guy who came up with the come-to-life potion by stirring four pots constantly with a stirrer in each hand and each foot for some ridiculous amount of time. He was the brains behind creating Jack pumpkinhead, the scarecrow, the sawhorse, and I think he had something to do with the tin man, though he started out human I believe.

The Crooked Magician, he was a main feature of this one in particular I just finished! 6 whole years, and then the Wizard took away his magic & his crookedness.

I probably read that 45 years ago and it stuck hard with me.
