Aerial Ardor BONNIE TAYLOR: AIRLINE STEWARDESS "Flight 101--to Heartbreak!" Conclusion

We Have Already Seen...

...when Bonnie Taylor: Airline Stewardess, filling in for a sick friend, encounters a former beau (with his current fiancee)...who slips her a note asking for a secret rendezvous...she's thrown into emotional turmoil!





This story from DC's Young Romance #126 (1963), written by Robert Kanigher and illustrated by John Romita Sr,  seems innoccuous enough,
But, within a couple of issues, Bonnie's throwing herself at literally every guy (and even a ghost or two) she runs into, ready to marry some of them before the second part of her two-part tales!
(I'm sure it it wasn't for the extremely-strict Comics Code Authority, we'd see some of the between-the-sheets action even all-ages comics of today occasionally indulge in!)

Next Week ...We're Not Sure Exactly What We're Going to Present!
But We Guarantee...
You'll Cry Your Eyes Out if You Miss It!

Aerial Ardor BONNIE TAYLOR: AIRLINE STEWARDESS "Flight 101--to Heartbreak!" Part 1

We've Already Presented a Pair of Tales...

...HERE and HERE starring our horny air hostess, but this was her introduction!






It Actually Continues on Friday!
(We would have said "tomorrow", but the flight was delayed!)

This introductory tale, written by Robert Kanigher and illustrated by John Romita Sr, from DC's Young Romance #126 (1963) introduces Bonnie Taylor, who, despite her declarations of eternal love for whoever her current paramour is, eagerly jumps into the arms of someone at the very next layover and professes perpetual love...and sometimes marriage...for him!
She kept up this manic pace until #139, when she apparently settled down!

Beach Read CURSE OF THE MacINTYRES "Chapter II: Twisted Love"

When Last We Left Our Heroine...

...after her elderly father passed away with his last words being a cryptic "hide the journal" and "MacIntyre Curse", Rachel MacIntyre is offered a new home at the family's ancestral castle in Scotland by her handsome, rich, widower cousin Blair.

When she arrives in Scotland from London, Rachel is warned by local townspeople that MacIntyre Castle is dangerous and only by paying double the usual fee can she find someone willing to take her and her luggage there.
She meets Blair's extremely-bright son Jamie and another cousin, Alfie, an eccentric dwarf as well as a surly, elderly couple who serve as housekeeper and handyman.
That night, she falls into an uneasy sleep, where she dreams of Blair kissing her!
But the kiss is intense, cutting off her breathing and she jolts awake to find someone trying to smother her with a pillow...

Cousin Blair is extremely...mercurial!
Is it possible he was the one who assulted Rachel...but doesn't remember doing so?
Is that the "MacIntyre Curse"?
To Be Continued...Tomorrow!

Beach Read CURSE OF THE MacINTYRES "Chapter I: The Secret of the Castle"

Stretch out on your beach blanket under the umbrella, get a cool drink, and dive into...

...the premiere issue of DC's second gothic romance comic, The Sinister House of Secret Love #1 (1971)





To Be Continued...Tomorrow!
You'll Cry Your Eyes Out If You Miss It!
This terrifying tale was written by Mary Skrenes and illustrated by Don Heck.

As we mentioned earlier, it was preceded the month before by another gothic romance comic, Dark Mansion of Forbidden Love.
The two books were published on alternate months, providing eight monthly doses in a row of Gothic romance.
Sadly, sales on both were poor, and the books became standard horror titles with their fifth issues, though both included Gothic romances in those #5 issues since they had already been created and paid for before the decision to change format was made!
Bonus: The original art for the first page of the story.

HI-SCHOOL ROMANCE "Baby-Sitter's Blues"

From the title, you wouldn't think this was a Yuletide story...
...but it most definitely is!
Does this story (by unknown writers, artists, or a writer-artist) from Harvey's Hi-School Romance #3 (1950) give you the "warm and fuzzy" feeling such holiday tales are supposed to provide?
Merry Christmas!!!
