Girls' Love Stories #83

A flight attendant leans over a seated man with a knowing smile, offering him a pillow while calling out "Here's your pillow, dear-- er-- Mr. Rand!" — the catch in her voice saying everything — as the blonde woman beside him looks on with unmistakable tension. John Romita's cover art for this December 1961 DC romance title captures that delicious, uncomfortable moment when a past and present collide at 30,000 feet. The teaser copy promises "The Beginning of the End," making this issue of Girls' Love Stories a genuinely compelling snapshot of mid-century romantic drama.
