About the series

A 46-issue romance comic series published by Thorpe & Porter from 1953 to 1955, Young Love was a key title in the boom of postwar romance comics, largely shaped by the celebrated team of Joe Simon and Jack Kirby, along with artist John Prentice. The series offered a steady stream of dramatic, heartfelt stories about courtship, heartbreak, and marriage, reflecting the era's ideals and anxieties around love and relationships. It stands as a significant example of how the romance genre dominated newsstands in the early 1950s, showcasing the polished, emotionally charged artwork that Simon and Kirby brought to the form.
