We Have Already Seen...
Big city girl Ann, unable to find a romantic partner, journeys to the countryside to spend Christmas with relatives!
Once there, she meets Chris, a guy whom she had briefly (and klutzilly) encountered back in the city!
Note: he's the very image of a potential lover she had been dreaming about for months! (hence the story's title)
Is it fate that they encounter each other?
Was there something...odd...about Father Christmas?
He seemed rather...insightful...about Ann's need for the dress!
At least we have a fairly-logical explanation as to why Chris appeared in Ann's dream!
For Christmas this year, we're doing things a little differently.
Instead of a bunch of unrelated Christmas/winter season tales, we're presenting a movie-length "graphic novel" from England that reads like the script for a Hallmark Channel Christmas movie. Sadly, the writer-artist credits for this story from IPC's Love Story Picture Library 1031 (1973) are unknown.
BTW, this title ran over 1600 issues by doing a half-dozen issues per month covering everything from holiday tales, to period pieces involving swashbuckers, to wartime sagas to contemporary stories!
They were as popular among British teen and young adult girls as Harlequin Romances were among Americans!
