Love Diary #75

Charlton's Love Diary #75 (November 1971) wears its heartache openly, with cover art by Art Cappello depicting a tearful blonde woman clutching a tissue while a dark-haired man leans close — and a framed military portrait of "Larry," inscribed "with all my love," watches from below a bouquet of roses. The cover story title "Unfaithful Forever" and the woman's thought bubble — longing for Larry to hurry home from Viet Nam — capture the bittersweet emotional tension that made early-'70s romance comics resonate so deeply. Inside, Pete Morisi handles art, inks, and lettering throughout, promising the kind of polished, heartfelt storytelling Charlton fans came to rely on.
