LOVE PROBLEMS AND ADVICE ILLUSTRATED "I Hated Men!"

For the rest of January, we're presenting several different tales with this title...

...because it's one of the most frequently-used headers for romance comic stories!

Illustrated (and possibly written) by Bob Powell, this (surprisingly) never-reprinted tale from McCombs' Love Problems and Advice Illustrated #1 (1949) is a classic example of male/female attitudes of the era!
Note: This year we're going to do a different theme each month.
Wait'll you see what we have planned...

What Do LOVE PROBLEMS & ADVICE ILLUSTRATED and PRIVATE LIVES AND LOVES OF GIRLS IN WHITE Have in Common?

We'll tell you in a second...

...it's been an exhausting week leading up to the election and we're just too pooped to do a full story post!
But we didn't want to disappoint our faithful audience!

So, this week, we offer a kool Lee Elias-illustrated cover you wouldn't usually see on this blog...for a very unusual reason!

Wonder why?

Because it had nothing to do with any story in McCombs' Love Problems and Advice Illustrated #1 (1949).

Note: Harvey Comics purchased McCombs' inventory when it went out of business in 1950, and continued the Love Problems comic for 42 more issues until 1957.

And here's the weirdest thing...

...the cover art was re-used for Private Lives and Loves of Girls in White, which appeared as part of Harvey's Comic Hits anthology (#58 in 1952), an issue about romances involving doctors and nurses!

BTW, it still didn't have anything to do with any of the stories in the book!
