YOUNG LOVE "Love Me--Love My Father"

We ran the 1969-1970 version of this tale HERE...
...but when DC reprinted the story in 1974-1975 they changed more than the fashions and hairstyles, as the revised splash page demonstrates!
The reprinted version from DC's Young Love #113 (1974-75) changed only the female fashions and hairstyles, not the male ones!
I wonder why?

YOUNG ROMANCE "My Father, My Love!"

If that titilating title didn't grab your attention...
...then you're reading the wrong blog!
(Just keep in mind this is a Comics Code-approved story...)
Written and penciled by Ric Estrada and inked by Vince Colletta, this scintiliating story from DC's Young Romance #163 (1969/1970) was not the cover-featured tale for that issue!
(If I was the editor, it sure as hell would have been!)
When the tale was reprinted several years later, it was not only "updated" by redrawing the women's hair and clothing, but the title and opening page were rewritten as well!

PHANTOM WITCH DOCTOR "Death Came Dancing"

As a Halloween treat (no trick), here's a tale about true love from beyond the grave...
...as presented in a classic 1950s horror comic!
This tale appeared in the 1952 one-shot comic anthology Phantom Witch Doctor by Avon Comics.
Both the writer and artist are unknown and the story has never been reprinted.
 Happy Halloween, everyone!
Next week:
We haven't decided yet which tale it'll be, but we can guarantee that...
You'll Cry Your Eyes Out if You Miss It!
(Oh, you've heard that, eh?)

Halloween HeartBreak GHOSTLY TALES "Promise" Conclusion

Pursued by Japanese invaders, a wounded Korean soldier comes upon a house inhabited by two sisters who agree to aid him upon condition that he marry one of them.
He does so, and when the Japanese squad arrives, the sisters reveal themselves to be expert swordswomen who kill the entire squad...
The phrase "Hell Hath No Fury Like a Woman Scorned!" apparently applies to women in all cultures.
Here's writer/artist Sanho Kim explaining the basis of this type of tale...
