Today you’ll see a lot of ham-fisted attempts at romantic whimsy in honor of St. Valentine (who met his end at the chopping block, nary a chocolate nor rose in sight). Call us old fashioned but we prefer our romance served up with heaping helpings of melodrama, garnished with tears.
Our undying love, then, goes to Comics Alliance for putting together a “best of” highlighting the romance comics of the ’50s and ’60s. You’ll find a few choice bits below, but really you owe it to yourself (and that special someone) to check out their complete collection.
