A bride getting cold feet at her wedding is as universal a concept as can be imagined...
...transcending ethnicity, religion, or societal upbringing!
A happy ending for this tale from DC's Girls' Love Stories #172 (1972).
But, if you're a regular reader of this blog, it might seem a bit...familiar!
That's because we already ran it last year...sort of...as part of our "Wedding Bliss" series!
This version appeared six years earlier, also in DC's Girls' Love Stories, but in #121 (1966).
(Altered reprints didn't usually appear in the same series the original version was published in!)
Curiously, the Grand Comics DataBase doesn't make mention of the reuse of the story in either of its' Girls' Love Stories listings for #121 or #172!
And, they can't make up their minds as to who illustrated it.
I lean towards a combination of John Rosenberger and Win Mortimer.
