Teen-Age Love #31

A young woman reads intently in the foreground while a smiling young man gazes down at her from a dreamy thought-bubble overhead — and inside that bubble, a glamorous dark-haired singer performs in the spotlight, microphone in hand. Norman Nodel's pencils and Dick Giordano's inks give this 1963 Charlton romance a wonderfully warm tension, perfectly capturing the cover's central question: stardom or love — one or the other? With Joe Gill scripting stories including "Rich Girl Blues" and "Never Again," this issue packs a full slate of heartfelt romantic dilemmas into its twelve cents.
