In "I Was Jilted and Had No Desire to Live," a 1949 EC gem written, drawn, and inked by Al Feldstein, high school student Mary Lou finds herself tangled in a web of romantic missteps and mistaken identities. When her shifting relationships with Jack, Teddy, and Johnny lead to a dramatic arrest, the enigmatic Moon Girl—secretly her high school teacher, Miss Claire Lune—steps in to clear Jack’s name. The story unfolds with the sharp, moody storytelling fans love, all rendered in Feldstein’s distinctive style, both on the interior pages and on the cover he also created.
