Love on New Year's Eve LOVE DIARY "Make Way for Love"

Though the caption on the cover references a story about three New Year's resolutions...

...the cover art doesn't show the characters from that tale (or any other story) in the issue!

At least it's by the same artist...John Buscema!

Illustrated by John Buscema and scriped by a currently-unknown writer, this never-reprinted story from Orbit's Love Diary #33 (1953) superbly-demonstrates the versatility of an artist most present-day comics fans know only for his voluminous Marvel superhero work and Conan the Barbarian!

But that'll change in January, which we decree will be...

John Buscema Month!

You'll Cry Your Eyes Out If Miss It!

HAPPY NEW YEAR

TEEN-AGE LOVE "A Very Merry Christmas"

We promised you a Christmas romance story...

...and, hoo boy, did we deliver!

It's a Hallmark Channel Yuletide TV-movie in comic-book form!

It's also one of the rare Charlton covers that isn't just re-used art from the story inside, but new art by Dick Giordano!

Enjoy...

Talk about your two-for-one deals!

A Christmas story and a New Years Eve tale in one!

Though this never-reprinted story from Charlton's Teen-Age Love #44 (1965) is attributed to penciler Bill Montes and inker Jon D'Agostino, it looks like several other pencilers and inkers redrew individual panels, including Steve Ditko and Sal Trapani!

We're taking next week off, but we'll be back in January with much more graphic love!
MERRY CHRISTMAS
and a
HAPPY NEW YEAR!
