These are cool issues! DC was killing it in the late 70s and early 80s. The art and scripts were consistently top-notch! There's Whitman variants of the first two issues of Presents also. The sad reason Ragman was canceled so quickly is because by the third issue the sales figures come in and by then most times the next two issues are completely finished. As you can guess the sakes figures were not high enough to justify the series continuation. I prefer issue 1 of DC Presents simply because it was promoted more heavily and therefore stuck in my mind from the house ads.
I agree with all your choices and they are all great series. Ragman #3 was like my second or third off the rack comic when I was 8 years old. Still got it. Ghost Castle I have #1 from old collecting days like in early 80s. Weird Worlds also a run I'm working on finishing and DC Presents i got #15 off the rack in 79. Thanks for the trip down memory lane !
Ragman #3 is actually my favorite cover of that short run. I didn't discover Tales of Ghost Castle until I returned to the hobby when I turned 50 seven years ago. Thanks for watching QNS.
More great choices, Erik! All very cool/fun series and I ran the table with all #2 picks on this great group. I really enjoy playing this game, if you will, just alot of fun! Thanks again, amigo!
I can see how you could pick #2 on all of them. Usually we think the first issue will be the pick but that is not always the case. Thanks for watching Rod.

Ghost Castle is the only one I made a different choice on, I mean there's a mushroom with bone arms coming out of it on issue 1!
That was a good cover and who wouldn't love a mushroom with bones coming out of it?! 😁
So fun! For Weird Worlds, I have to go with #2. For all the other titles, I go for #1. All great titles! Thank you!
I do love that second issue of Weird Worlds too. Such a cool cover. Thanks for watching Jackson.
