Second Chance at Love & Romance on the Range LOVE STORIES "His Other Wife!"

Second Chances Don't Always Come Along...

...so when one does appear, it's best you grab at it before it vanishes!

This never-reprinted "contemporary Western" romance story, illustrated by penciler Mike Sekowsky and inker Jack Abel appeared in DC's Love Stories #149 (1973).

The script mught be by the book's editor, Robert Kanigher, but we don't know for certain.

Next week:

We haven't decided yet what story it'll be, but we can guarantee that...

You'll Cry Your Eyes Out if You Miss It!

(Oh, you've heard that, eh?)

Hot Snow HEART THROBS "Winter Meeting" & GIRLS" LOVE STORIES "That Special Moment"

 Here's a (Literally) Kool, Twice-Told Tale of the Flames of Love...

...kindled in the snow!

Appearing in DC's Heart Throbs #69 (1960-61), which came out in late autumn-early winter, the Tony Abruzzo & Bernard Sachs-illustrated story perfectly-captured the mood of the season!
When it was reprinted a decade later in DC's Girls' Love Stories #163 (1971), also in late autumn-early winter, it was "updated" with then-current hairstyles and fashions!
In addition, because the "Heart Throbs" header on each page was removed, the art was extended, resulting in some interesting layout reworking, like on the splash page!
But, unlike most "updated" reprints, some of this one's captions and dialogue balloons have been rewritten...

It's unknown why some of the dialogue and captions were re-written.

Yuletide Tidings SECRET HEARTS "So Little Time!" / FALLING IN LOVE "Perfect Gift"

Here's a bittersweet Yuletide tale about potential love that was published twice...

...first, half a century ago, in DC's Secret Hearts #87 (1963)...

...then, with the usual "updating" of fashions, hairstyles, and automobiles (and a title change) in DC's Falling in Love #128 (1972)!

Not every Christmas romance story ends like a Hallmark Channel Holiday Movie, even in the 1960s-70s!

Illustrated by veteran artist John Rosenberger, the name of the scripter of this melancholy tale is lost to the snows of time.

Merry Christmas!!!
