Teen-Age Love #55

Charlton's Teen-Age Love #55 brings the drama of the teen social scene straight to the cover, where a dark-haired guy in green makes a possessive move on red-headed Tina while a more clean-cut rival in a suit looks on with obvious objection — speech bubbles flying as the tension plays out in real time. Surrounding them, a crowd of sharply dressed 1967 teens adds to the charged atmosphere, making this feel like a Saturday night gone complicated. With cover art by Lucho Olivera and interior story "My Unlikely Prince Charming" scripted by Joe Gill, this is a neat little slice of late-'60s romance comics at their most lively.
