Teen-Age Love #86

A sun-drenched beach sets the stage for heartache in this 1972 Charlton romance, with cover art by José Luis García-López depicting a young blonde woman in a purple bikini reclining on the sand while a long-haired man approaches in the background — and an inset panel teasing the story "Hour of Despair" shows a tense confrontation between figures near the shoreline. The groovy Teen-Age Love logo perfectly captures the early-seventies mood, and a bonus free pin-up poster of the Partridge Family sweetens the deal. Interior art by Charles Nicholas and Vince Alascia brings the emotional drama of "Stay Out of My Life!" to life for just twenty cents.
