Secret Romance #25

Charlton's Secret Romance #25 brings the drama of 1973 romance comics to a boil with a cover by Art Cappello that pulls no punches. A wide-eyed young woman lies in a hospital bed, her expression caught between desperation and calculation, while a stern Dr. Forbes stands in the background — the speech bubbles between them crackling with the kind of romantic scheming that made this genre irresistible. With the story "A Fool for His Kisses!" waiting inside, this issue is a warm reminder of why readers couldn't get enough of Charlton's heartfelt, high-stakes love stories.
