GREAT LOVES "Elizabeth Barrett and Robert Browning"

Ever wonder if writers of romantic fiction were, themselves, happy...
 ...if they actually found True Love, or just wrote about it?
Well, wonder no more!
Written and illustrated by Jerry Robinson (who co-created both The Joker and Robin the Boy Wonder), this brief, never-reprinted tale from Gold Key's Dear Nancy Parker #1 (1963) was the first in a projected series about famous real-life lovers.
Unfortunately, Dear Nancy Parker was cancelled after the second issue...
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!
And now a word from out sponsor...

YOUNG ROMANCE "I Love You, Frank Gerard"

You think "mansplaining" is a new phenomenon?
Hardly.
It was happening at least as far back as 1948, when this tale appeared!
This never-reprinted story of business, love, and the business of love is from Prize's Young Romance #4 (1948).
Layouts by Jack Kirby, pencils by Jerry Robinson & Mort Meskin, inks by Joe Simon.
The writer is unknown, but believed to be Simon and/or Kirby.
Next week:
The Return of Reach for Happiness...
You'll Cry Your Eyes Out if You Miss It!
(Oh, you've heard that, eh?)
