Girls' Love Stories #99

From DC's long-running romance anthology comes Girls' Love Stories #99 (November 1963), featuring the story "No Ring for My Finger!" The cover, penciled and inked by John Romita, captures a wrenching waterside moment: a red-haired woman in a red top turns away in distress on the dock, while a young man in a yellow shirt sits at the helm of a motorboat alongside a composed woman in a blue top — the speech bubble making clear that hearts and loyalties are very much in conflict. It's a beautifully rendered snapshot of early-'60s romantic drama, with Romita's expressive linework giving every anguished glance its full emotional weight.
