Girls' Love Stories #163
☆ Be the first to review + Add to your collection — Join free"Child of Divorce" is a poignant, character-driven story from Girls' Love Stories #163, a 1971 DC comic that captures quiet emotional turbulence with rare sensitivity. Written by Tony Abruzzo and inked by Bernard Sachs, the tale follows Lucille as she flees a broken relationship, only to be stranded by a snowstorm at a roadside motel—where she encounters another lost soul seeking escape. The cover by Art Saaf and Vince Colletta perfectly frames the story’s intimate, melancholic mood.
Ina struggles with the idea of love and commitment, haunted by her upbringing as a child of divorce—her fear that any marriage she enters might end the same way. As she navigates her feelings, she finds herself drawn to someone who might just help her face the past without letting it define her future.
In "That Special Moment," Lucille flees a painful breakup with her boyfriend Paul, only to be stranded at a roadside motel by a sudden snowstorm. There, she meets another lonely traveler—another man running from a recent heartbreak—whose quiet presence offers unexpected connection.
In "Wallflower!", Linda—star student and athlete who’s always been overlooked in the dating game—finds unexpected attention from a man who sees beyond the surface to her true worth. As their connection deepens, she begins to wonder if someone finally sees her for who she really is.
