Hollywood Romances #54

Charlton's Hollywood Romances #54 captures the glamour and heartache of Tinseltown in a cover by Angel Luna that swirls together dreamy close-up portraits of blonde beauties alongside passionate embraces and poolside flirtations — all framed by movie cameras that remind us love here is always performed under the spotlight. The story inside, "Sheila's Secrets," promises the kind of bittersweet romance this series did so well, with art by Alexander Barnes bringing it to life. For fifteen cents in 1970, this is a lovely slice of the romance comics genre at its most cinematically stylish.
