I Love You #44

Charlton's long-running romance anthology delivers another charged moment in this 1963 issue, with a cover by Dick Giordano that crackles with party-night tension. A man named Durant holds a glamorous blonde woman close on the dance floor, whispering "You dance divinely, Virginia," while an angry husband steps forward from the crowd to demand he let go of his wife — the music has stopped, and so has any pretense of innocence. It's a beautifully composed snapshot of romantic entanglement that sets the stage perfectly for the interior story, "Just a Passing Fancy," written by Joe Gill.
