Alex Toth Tales SECRET HEARTS "20 Miles to Heartbreak" Part 3

We Have Already Seen...

...actually, this cover scene by penciler Dick Giordano and inker Vince Colletta doesn't occur in the story, since it's not Juan at the door!

(In fact, he only appears in a flashback in this chapter!)

So who is it???

Yep, we finally get back to Young Love for the soap opera-esque finale...

TOMORROW!

You'll Cry Your Eyes Out If You Miss It!!!

The third chapter (out of four) from DC's Secret Hearts #142 (1970) was written by Barbara Friedlander, penciled and lettered by Alex Toth and inked by Vince Colletta.

We're Winding Up Alex Toth Tales with a Four-Part Story...

Cover by Dick Giordano

...which bounced between two comic titles, while being the cover feature for all four installments!

You Won't Have to Wait a Month for the Next Chapter in...

...Since You'll Be Able to Read it on Thursday!

But, You Will Cry Your Eyes Out If You Miss It!

This initial chapter from DC's Young Love #78 (1970) was scripted by Barbara Friedlander, penciled and lettered by Alex Toth and inked by Vince Colletta.
Note: usually, if Toth does the lettering, he usually inks the story as well...but not in the case of this multi-parter.
The reason is unknown.

Alex Toth Tales POPULAR ROMANCE "Blinded by Love"

This tale about a love triangle from childhood to adulthood...

...and from lighthearted fun to tragedy would make for a heck of a Hallmark Channel movie!

This poignant Alex Toth-penciled and Mike Peppe-inked story from Standard's Popular Romances #22 (1953) is probably the single-most reprinted tale from any of the company's romance books.

Next Week:

We don't know...yet...what Alex Toth Tale we're going to present!
