Heart Throbs #65

From DC's National Romance Group comes this charged May 1960 installment of Heart Throbs, with cover pencils by Tony Abruzzo and inks by John Romita bringing real emotional tension to the scene. The cover catches a dramatic outdoor moment: a dark-haired young woman in a pink sweater pulls away from a blonde figure gripping her arm, pleading "You may not know what love is — but I do! Let me go!" — while a brooding young man in a yellow jacket stands apart in the foreground, seemingly unmoved. Promising the interior story "Hold Back the Stars!," this issue delivers exactly the heartfelt romantic conflict that made Heart Throbs one of 1960's most compelling romance titles.
