Patsy and Hedy #103

Marvel's Patsy and Hedy #103 promises "Drama! Romance! Thrills!" right on the cover, and the art — penciled by Al Hartley and inked by Frank Giacoia and Joe Giella — delivers on that energy with a striking close-up of a wide-eyed redhead dominating the foreground, surrounded by a triptych of panels teasing confrontations, a tense hospital corridor moment, and a charged group scene. The featured story, "Love's Finest Hour!," looks to weave together the kind of heartfelt, soap-opera stakes that made Marvel's romance titles a genuine pleasure in 1965. If you've got a soft spot for sharp mid-sixties artwork and stories where careers and hearts collide, this one earns a place on your reading list.
