I Love You #42

Against a moonlit sky and the flickering glow of a bonfire, a young couple embraces near a "Victory Dance" banner while a brooding young man watches from the foreground — his expression caught somewhere between longing and resignation. The cover's caption cuts right to the heart of it: "He'll break her heart… or perhaps she'll break his… if he weren't the kind of boy that he is!" Joe Sinnott's pencils and Vince Colletta's inks give this 1962 Charlton romance entry a warm, melancholy charge that perfectly suits the featured story, "I Denied My Love," written by Joe Gill.
