In "Love Is a Pain!", O. G. Whiz finds himself unexpectedly smitten with a new doll from Tikkletoys, leading to a heartfelt (and hilariously awkward) lunch date that ends in emotional turmoil. Written and illustrated by John Stanley, this 1978 gem captures the absurdity and sincerity of a machine learning love—complete with a failed repair attempt and a bold new idea for a toy that can actually get better. Cover by John Stanley.

Jo, a perpetually cheerful doll from Tikkletoys, charms O. G. with her wit and charm—so much so that he takes her out to lunch, only to break down in tears. When repairs fail, he’s inspired to design a new kind of doll: one that can get sick and be cured, turning playtime into something unexpectedly tender.
