Girls' Love Stories #93

A snapshot of early-1960s romantic tension, this February 1963 DC romance issue features cover art by John Romita that immediately pulls you into a triangle of longing. A blonde woman in a yellow dress pauses beside a red convertible, her expression mixing hope with unease as she spots — through a station doorway — a man greeting a red-haired woman in green, her thought bubble reading "Larry's car!... Oh, I knew he'd meet me at the station…" Inside, writer Phyllis Reed and artist Mike Peppe bring "Flirting with Heartbreak" to life, promising the kind of heartfelt, emotionally charged storytelling that made Girls' Love Stories a beloved staple of the era.
