Love in the Time of Covid-19 FIRST ROMANCE "Take Me"

Not every romance comics story has a happy ending!

Some are melancholy!

Some are bittersweet!

You decide which one is applicable here...

Personally, I lean towards "bittersweet", because Larry will help Mary though the crisis, and, with any luck, she'll fall for him...

This story of desire deferred and disease from Harvey's First Romance #25 (1953) was illustrated by multi-genre mainstay Bob Powell. but the author is unknown...

AGAR-AGAR "Martian Visitors"

When Last We Left Our Horny, yet Innocent, Sprite...

...well, all you really need know is that a good time was had by all!
Let's continue...

This story from New England Library's Dracula #9 (1971) was written by Luis Gasca under the pen-name Sadko and illustrated in a Peter Max-esque style by Alberto Solsona.

In prepping these scans, I discovered the stories had been published out of order!
Four weeks ago, I ran the tale from Dracula #8, so logically, the tale two weeks ago should have been #9...except the storyline from #8 lead directly into the story from #10...which leads into this one from #9, and, tomorrow, finally #11!

It'll be a groovy trip, baby!

TOMORROW...

Super-Love with SUPERGIRL (and WONDER WOMAN) "Revolt of the Super-Chicks" Part 3

We Have Already Seen...

...actually, we'll see this scene by Supergirl series artist Jim Mooney in. couple of pages!

In the meantime, all you need to know is that Supergirl has renounced being a crimefighter to become a Paris fashion model.

Wonder Woman, at Superman's request, follows Kara to talk her out of it, but becomes enraptured by a romantic Frenchman in the City of Love!

Meanwhile, metamorphing villain Multi-Face plots to steal an experimental rocket from a base nearby the "Isle of Love" where both the heroines are vacationing...

Considering they were both ready to throw away their careers (and in Wonder Woman's case, her long-time love Steve Trevor), the ending seems a bit...contrived!

The two heroines would meet again in the final issue of Wonder Woman before she renounced her powers for totally-different reasons...

Err...never mind!

BTW, you can read this tale HERE!
