SECRET HEARTS "What About Some Love for Me?"

How many of us have been treated like doormats by our "friends"...
...even to the point where we'd actually help them steal the one we love?
I'll bet a lot of readers can identify with Katie...
We don't know how Jane reacted to this turn of events...nor do we care!
This never-reprinted, cover-featured tale from DC's Secret Hearts #109 (1966) was penciled by John Romita, inked by Bernard Sachs with several panels redrawn by Mike Sekowsky.
(Romita had just gone over to Marvel to take over as the artist on Daredevil, and shortly thereafter, Spider-Man!)

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.

Best read by the light of a lava lamp while buring some incense!

SEARCH FOR LOVE "Atomic Amour"

With all the current talk about Russkie deceit and deception...
...we forget they were masters of such things during the Cold War!
As hard as it is to believe, this tale appeared in a romance comic, specifically, ACG's Search for Love #2 (1950).
Similar tales had appeared in crime/espionage titles, but their audience was radically-different from romance series' readers!
Regrettably, both the writer and illustrator(s) are unknown, so we can't blame anybody in particular for their stereotyped attitudes towards intelligent women.
