At long last, we present the final story...
...from Jack (King) Kirby's Soul Love!
Note...it's somewhat "politically incorrect"...but not for the reason you might think!
(Hey, look!
A "Kirby Quote"!)
You'll note pages 5 and 6 aren't as "clean" as the other pages, which are scanned from the actual original art!
They're scanned from photocopies, which are the only versions I could acquire, but they're legible enough to "fill out" the tale!
(Oh, man!
More "Kirby Quotes"!)

Written/penciled/edited by Jack Kirby and inked by Vince Colletta, the story takes the typical attitude of the period about overweight women, though Aleda's not actually obese.
(In fact, I was involved with a woman who had a similar body type, which I found extremely-appealing!)
You can read other Soul Love tales we've presented HERE.
Soul Love would have been the second romance comic oriented to a Black audience.

The first was the four-issue 1950s series Negro Romances, which we covered HERE.
Thanks to Kracalactaka for the scans.

Bold inking job in this story from Vince (The Prince) Colletta. The man could ink in almost any style, it seems.
