“Half a Heart!”

In "Half a Heart!", Doreen grapples with quiet heartbreak when her longtime crush, Nelson, announces his engagement to Elaine—her neighbor and childhood friend. Though she’s devastated, she clings to a fragile hope that love, even unreturned, might still find a way. Ric Estrada’s expressive art, inked by Dick Giordano, captures every tender moment, while Charlotte Jetter’s lettering brings emotional nuance to the page. The cover, also by Dick Giordano, mirrors the story’s bittersweet tone with a poignant, intimate image.
