Time for Love #32

A young couple stands at the center of this warm and bittersweet cover by Antonio Colmeiro, holding hands as an officiant tells Roderick he may kiss the bride — while a dreamy inset sketch hints at the romantic moment to come. Onlookers flank the pair, and the caption "We were too young to marry but we didn't care until the world turned against us — one minute later!" sets up the kind of tender, turbulent romance that made Charlton's love comics so compelling in 1973. Bonus appeal: a free Partridge Family pin-up poster is promised inside, making this 20-cent issue a genuine time capsule of early-'70s pop culture.
