I like the covers and art a lot and thought it would be nice to assemble some mid-grade runs

What was so wrong with the original thread? Infinite Bronze Romance Thread

[AmazingSaul]

I noticed that most of the romance books have the girls crying. I've never read the inside of the stories, are they always crying inside the story as well?

Why Chicks Cry

[AmazingSaul]

Haha that's funny. I was wondering about the inside of the comic though. Hopefully someone can shed light. As almost all the covers have girls crying.

Where's the love?

 

Here are three recent pickups...

 

 

 

 

 

Anybody else got any recent BA romance they'd like to post?

[jools&jim]

 

I got this one on a family road trip a few months ago. I had a hard time tracking down a decent copy for light $$, but the effort was worth it: great story, and incredible art by Alex Toth and (for the first half of the story) Doug Wildey:

This is one of my favorites. Toth does great work here. "The Bride of the Falcon" was also reprinted in one of those DC Blue Ribbon digests in the early 80s. In the pre-internet days, that was a tough book to find.

Great books, guys.

Sweet! Your picture frame romance books are always super sharp!

 

According to Mike'sAmazing World of Comics, Ron Wilson is the cover artist. Why do you suppose CGC didn't credit him on the label?

I don't know. But I have noticed that CGC's label notes have gotten more generous with some books over the years. And I think the My Love #20 is the only graded copy. So maybe it's lack of interest.

 

But I'd guess if it were a Romita cover, it would find its way onto the label.

[Dick Pontoon]

That doesn't look like Ron Wilson to me.

[Jeffro.]

Comics.org has some interesting notes on the cover artist for that issue.
