Romantic Story #120

Charlton's Romantic Story #120 (1972) captures that bittersweet tension of young love under pressure, with cover art by Art Cappello showing a blonde woman in a green top and a dark-haired young man holding each other close, their faces nearly touching as speech bubbles hint at outside forces threatening their relationship. The story title "He'll Break My Heart" looms on the cover alongside an inner caption confessing that Webb is "reckless and charming" — the kind of emotional honesty that made Charlton romance comics so relatable. As a bonus, the issue promises a free pin-up poster of Bobby Sherman tucked inside, making this a true snapshot of early-'70s teen romance culture.
