“Lover's Story”

In "Lover's Story," Mort Drucker delivers a deadpan, satirical take on the tragic romance trope, parodying the film *Love Story* with a rich college boy’s doomed affair with a woman from a different background—complete with heartfelt drama and a beautifully tragic twist. Rendered in Drucker’s signature sharp, expressive style, this issue showcases his full creative control as writer, artist, and inker, with a cover that matches the story’s wry, melancholic tone.
