 In
the late 1960's, back when comics were an ubiquitous product, most companies
made an effort to reach as wide an audience as possible by publishing many
different kinds of comics. Marvel Comics, who was making a strong
challenge against industry leader DC, made an aggressive move into the
romance market with two titles-- OUR LOVE  STORY
and MY LOVE. Stan Lee, Roy & Jean Thomas, & Gerry Conway--
Marvel's A-List writers-- provided the scripts. Their best artists--
John Buscema, John Romita, Jim Steranko, & more-- provided the visuals.
Look for these two series, and others, with the Back Issue Comic Search. |
