Young Love #82

Young Love #82 (On Sale: July 9, 1970) has a cover inked by Dick Giordano.

We begin with a table of contents page entitled, "You're Young and You're In Love" drawn by Gray Morrow. The first story is "He's the One I Want" drawn in a completely forgettable manner by Winslow Mortimer and Vinny Colletta.

That is followed by "Happy Ending" with art by Jay Scott Pike and Vinny Colletta. Art-wise, this story is miles ahead of the previous one, as Pike does some nice pencils that Vinny was unable to completely destroy

We end with "Please, Please... Make Him Forget Her" drawn by the great Gray Morrow. this is the class act of the book and should have been highlighted rather than forced to sit in the back of the book. Gray Morrow, sexy women, what more do you possibly need?

Edited by Dick Giordano.

I've actually really gotten into romance comics of that vintage of late. Despite being marketed for girls, some of the plots are just a hair off from sleazy lurid drive-in exploitation type stuff. But in a fun way.
