I don’t think I’ve ever been this excited to post a new Last Kiss comic. I’ve been looking forward to this day since early April when Tony Isabella bowled me over with an audacious idea.

Tony suggested doing an ongoing storyline featuring the love-struck Abby Amour. To make it even better, all the art is from a public domain romance story by the great Frank Frazetta.

Every Friday we’ll be posting new Abby Amour episodes. For how long? I’m not sure. But right now we have enough done for almost two more months. And Tony is still writing more—winging it until he comes up with the perfect conclusion to the storyline.

I’m looking forward to each new Friday. I hope you are too!
