MOD LOVE "She's the Hippest Girl in the World!"

Here's a psychedelic piece from the Swinging '60s, when Free Love was all the rage, baby!
Written by Michael Lutin, the story (and the entire issue) is illustrated by noted French pop artist Michel Quarez.

Next week...

We go to the Fabulous '40s for a "Stormy Tale of Dangerous Love"...

 You'll cry your eyes out if you miss it!

And now a word from our sponsor...

DIARY SECRETS "Breaking All the Rules"

Last week, we visited the socially-relevant '70s...

We now travel even further back, to the frantic '50s, for this tale of a small-town girl with big city desires...

Don't you just love a happy ending?
The art is by legendary glamour / good girl artist Matt Baker who did a lot of romance and super-heroine work.

BTW, the original title was "Rx for a Broken Heart", but I think this one works better.

I used the reprint because the original version wasn't the cover feature in the issue it was printed in.

My policy is to show stories that were cover-featured so I have a preview image for the "next week" blurb (and the title was the only thing that was altered).

Speaking of which...

Next week, we bounce forward a decade to the psychedelic '60s with the titillating tale "She's the Hippest Girl in the World"...

You'll cry your eyes out if you miss it!

SPECIAL: True Love on THORSday!

From Journey into Mystery #90. Art by Al Hartley

A classic example of how 1960s superhero titles handled romance.
Ironically, this is the only issue of any superhero book artist Al Hartley drew.
You'll be seeing more of his work in this blog, but on romance stories!
The movie adaptation of Thor, starring hunky Chris Hemsworth as Thor and beautiful Natalie Portman as Jane Foster, opens tomorrow.

TENDER LOVE STORIES "Campus Crusader in Love"

Good Deeds or Good Loving!
That's the choice Christine has to make when her love of social justice and her love for her long-time friend come into conflict...
