Love Romances #96

From Marvel's Girls in Love romance line comes this 1961 ten-cent heartbreaker — Love Romances #96, with a Jack Kirby cover that captures the sting of unrequited feeling perfectly. In the foreground, a red-haired young woman turns away in distress, her speech bubble crying out "Oh, Jim… Jim! Can't you see how you're breaking my heart?", while through a moonlit window behind her, a couple embraces warmly, the man reassuring his partner that the girl watching is simply "too young." The cover's tagline — "Romance was in the air all about me, but my aching heart knew that I was… 'Too Young'" — sets up a genuinely tender emotional dilemma, with Stan Lee writing and Kirby's clean, expressive linework giving the drama real warmth.
