ADVENTURES IN ROMANCE "September Squall"

With autumn right around the corner...
...here's a tale for the final weekend of warm weather that really fits the concept of a "beach read'!
You'll note a couple of two-page spreads at the beginning of the story.
This particular comic series, St John's Adventures in Romance #1 (1949), experimented with doing double-page spreads to establish a distinctive "look".
Sadly, it only lasted two issues.  ;-(
Artist Warren King spent several years in comic books doing everything from superheroes to horror to romance, before moving into newspaper cartooning, becoming the in-house editorial artist at the NY Daily News and winning the National Cartoonists Society Best Editorial Cartoonist Award in 1968.
He passed away in 1978.
Next week:
We haven't decided yet what it'll be, but we can guarantee that...
You'll Cry Your Eyes Out if You Miss It!
(Oh, you've heard that, eh?)

And now a word from out sponsor...
You can own a kool komic collectible
(t-shirt, mug, tote bag, etc.)
 embellished with the cover art from this week's torrid tale...
