Teen Confessions #37

This 1966 Charlton romance title serves up an irresistible mix of teen drama and Beatlemania, with the cover — penciled and inked by Dick Giordano — splitting the action between a tense confrontation of a young blonde woman and an aggressive man alongside the bold headline "I'M TOO GOOD FOR YOU!", while the yellow sidebar spotlights portrait shots of all four Beatles with the promise of a Beatles Fan Club story inside. Written by Joe Gill with inks by Jon D'Agostino, "Bring on the Beatles" captures exactly the kind of swooning, sharply emotional storytelling that made teen romance comics so appealing in the mid-1960s. A fun snapshot of pop culture at its peak Fab Four frenzy.
