Teen-Age Love Confessions Volume Two is the second of two tomes from Charlton Neo showcasing cover art from Charlton's wide array of romance comics. Most all of these are from the early 1960's and offer up a pageant of emotions, including jealousy, resentment, anger, frustration, but most of all love, both true and otherwise. There was a time when comics like this were wildly popular. Most of these covers are by Dick Giordano or Vince Colletta, two men closely associated with the genre. Other art is supplied by Charles Nicholas, Sal Gentile, and Joe Sinnott. The covers are presented in black and white in the Charlton Neo volume but below is the whole kaboodle in glorious color. In addition to the covers the volume contains small essays about the genre at Charlton. Enjoy again!
Happy Valentine's Day! Even more romance coming your way tomorrow.
I am reminded of the Sixties Bacharach/David hit sung by the lovely Dionne Warwick "I'll Never Fall in Love Again". As always, thanks Mister Rip.
