Life with Millie #10

This bright April 1961 issue of Marvel's breezy romance series captures Millie's charm perfectly — the cover, penciled and inked by Stan Goldberg, shows a snowy outdoor scene where a smitten young man sits with ski gear nearby, hearts floating around his head, as Millie's red-headed friend Chili explains that a girl like Millie simply doesn't need matches to start a fire. Millie herself, dressed in a cheerful red outfit and striped scarf, dances beside a small stone fireplace with smoke curling up, looking every bit as warm and irresistible as advertised. At just a dime, this is a delightful snapshot of early-'60s Marvel romance comics at their most lighthearted and fun.
