Falling in Love #51
☆ Be the first to review + Add to your collection — Join freeThe drama of early-1960s romance comics comes alive on this John Romita cover for Falling in Love #51, where a couple's tender moment at a soda shop is complicated by a smirking soda jerk's warning — "It looks like your 'ex' hasn't given up on you yet!" — as a confident blonde in a pink top and yellow slacks perches at the counter in the background. The tension between the dark-haired young man and the red-haired woman he holds is palpable, their unease playing out beautifully against that breezy diner setting. Inside, artist Tony Abruzzo and inker Bernard Sachs bring their own romantic storytelling to the featured story, "What Dreams Are Made Of!" — a fine twelve-cent package of heartache and hope from DC's 1962 romance lineup.
