Falling in Love #17

Rain-soaked and breathlessly romantic, this March 1958 issue of DC's Falling in Love features cover pencils by Tony Abruzzo and inks by Bernard Sachs — a pairing that brings real emotional weight to the image of a blonde woman clinging to a red-haired man in the rain, her eyes closed and rain streaking her cheeks against a glowing city-window backdrop. The cover teases the story "Let It Last Forever!" alongside the interior tale "Doomed to Love!," rendered by artist Mike Sekowsky with inks by Bill Draut. At just a dime, this National Romance Group title delivered the kind of tender, rain-drenched drama that made the romance comics of 1958 genuinely compelling reads.
