Teen Confessions #86

Teen Confessions #86 captures the bittersweet heart of 1974 romance comics in a single glance — a long-haired young man and a blonde woman embrace tenderly amid a swirl of red roses, while her thought bubble reads "Jonnie… you're going to ride away… and I'll be lonely again!" Below that central image, smaller vignettes hint at a love triangle in turmoil, with a motorcyclist ready to depart and two young men locked in a scuffle. Cover artist Sururi Gümen frames it all with an expressive warmth that perfectly suits the issue's story, "A Hopeless Love!" — and as a bonus, there's even a Find-A-Word puzzle inside, no dictionary needed.
