About the series
In 2006, Marvel Romance Redux: I Should Have Been a Blonde offered a single-issue, tongue-in-cheek reprint from the house of ideas, showcasing a classic Silver Age romance story. Writer Peter David provided a contemporary framing narrative and commentary, while the original artwork by Sol Brodsky was restored and presented alongside it. This one-shot was part of Marvel's short-lived "Romance Redux" line, which revisited and gently satirized the publisher's forgotten romance comics of the 1950s and 1960s. It's a curious, self-aware artifact for fans interested in Marvel's lesser-known publishing history and the evolution of its storytelling sensibilities.
