☆ Be the first to review + Add to your collection — Join freeIn "Perfect Date," Samantha recounts the tangled web of teenage crushes and missteps when her attention drifts from Bingo to Teddy—only to learn the hard way that charm can be a mask. Written by Frank Doyle and brought to life with vibrant energy by artist Stan Goldberg, this 2003 issue captures the awkward, heartfelt drama of high school romance, with lettering by Bill Yoshida and a cover by Stan Goldberg and Bob Smith.
In "My Selfish Heart," Samantha recounts the quiet ache of feeling overlooked by Bingo, a shift that leads her to notice Teddy—only to discover his charm hides a deeper emptiness. Written by a longtime voice in teen romance, the story unfolds with a wry, introspective tone, capturing the fragile, confusing pull of affection when attention feels scarce.
