Valentine #14 October 1967

In "Ain't That Peculiar," a quiet moment of courage unfolds as young Judy finds herself on a hospital ledge, not as a victim, but as a reluctant savior. Drawn into the loneliness of a child confined to the ward, Judy’s compassion leads her to confront the girl’s distant father—a man hardened by duty and indifference. With art by Gerry Haylock, this poignant 1967 story captures a fragile connection between two isolated souls, all beneath a stark, silent sky.
