Girls' Love Stories #164
☆ Be the first to review + Add to your collection — Join freeIn "Love by Computer!", Linda and Doris spend a vacation at a high-end resort where romance is algorithmically assigned—leaving Linda unimpressed by her matches, though she can’t help noticing Alan, the quiet computer technician who seems to be everywhere but paying attention. Written by Robert Kanigher and brought to life with crisp, expressive art by Werner Roth—inked by Vince Colletta and lettered by Gaspar Saladino—this 1971 issue captures the playful tension of modern romance, all wrapped in a cover by Roth and Colletta that perfectly frames the story’s quirky, tech-savvy charm.
In the sleek, sun-drenched world of an exclusive resort, love is handed out by machine—Linda finds herself paired with a series of mismatched guests, none of whom spark her interest. But when she catches sight of Alan, the quiet computer technician whose fingers dance across the system that controls their fates, she can’t help wondering if the machine might have gotten it wrong.
In "Let Him Go!", Bud finds himself drawn to Dorothy during a summer vacation, but her guarded heart makes it hard for her to open up—despite his earnest efforts, she remains distant, leaving him unsure if he’s meant to keep trying or let go.
In "Dumb Bunny," Ruth and Bettina worry over their friend Bunny, whose quiet obedience to her husband troubles them—especially after they spot him with another woman. Their concern deepens until they realize Bunny’s apparent passivity hides a sharper mind and a quiet strength of her own.
