Heart Throbs #128

Heart Throbs #128 brings the romantic anxieties of 1970 to vivid life on a cover penciled by Art Saaf and inked by Vince Colletta. A young woman in a mod floral dress looks on with clear disapproval as, behind her, a woman identified as Carol kisses a man at a party — her thought bubble revealing that this is apparently the fourth such encounter — while in the foreground another couple embraces in a chair. The cover's twin teasers, "Can a girl with old-fashioned ideas about love 'make it' in today's hip scene?" and "No Love for Miss Goody Two-Shoes!", frame a story that promises plenty of romantic turbulence from DC's National Romance Group.
