Girls' Love Stories #137

Against a twilight city skyline, a dark-haired young man clutches a tearful blonde woman to his chest, his expression torn as his speech bubble laments, "Oh, darling, darling — our love is hopeless! My family will never let me marry you!" The cover pencils by Ric Estrada and inks by Dick Giordano give the scene a striking emotional intensity, all warm golds and cool blues that perfectly capture the heartache at the center of "Not Good Enough for Me!" DC's Girls' Love Stories #137 (August 1968) serves up the kind of bittersweet romantic drama that made this series a compelling read for fans of the genre.
