“My Kind of Love!”

In "My Kind of Love!", a 1964 DC gem, Sue’s striking beauty overshadows her intelligence—until she’s cast as the ugly duckling in a play, only to surprise everyone with her transformation. After meeting Philip during a quiet evening walk in her costume, she finds a rare connection in his thoughtful conversation, but their budding romance is tested when she sees him at a celebratory party with a glamorous companion. Tony Abruzzo’s expressive art and Joe Giella’s sharp inks bring the emotional tension to life, while Gaspar Saladino’s lettering adds vintage flair.

Sue is so beautiful that nobody seems to care that she has a heart and a mind too. She is cast as the ugly duckling in a stage production so the audience will be stunned by the transformation into her beautiful self in the last act. Leaving rehearsals one evening without changing from her 'ugly duckling' role, she meets Philip who enjoys having a serious discussion with her. They continue seeing each other, but later at a cast party after the opening night show in a popular night spot, she sees Philip come in with a beautiful girl.
