My Love #31

Marvel's My Love #31 captures the romantic and social tensions of 1974 beautifully — the cover, penciled by Gene Colan and Marie Severin and inked by John Romita and Marie Severin, is a richly layered tableau showing a blonde woman and a dark-haired man locked in a passionate embrace at center stage, while surrounding vignettes depict a Women's Liberation protest, a woman at a typewriter, a brooding man, and a tense gathering of figures. The bold banner at the bottom — "Dedicated to the Fearless, Fabulous Females of Women's Lib!" — sets the tone for a story that puts real-world social change in conversation with matters of the heart. Inside, writer Joy Jackson and artist Jim Mooney bring that same charged atmosphere to "The Movement...Or My Heart!", a romance torn between personal conviction and emotional longing.
