Dancing with the Scars

Dancing with the Scars

In addition to a snazzy art by Kirsten Wilson, today’s comic shows off the new Last Kiss logo by frequent contributor Diego Jourdan Pereira.

As much as I liked the old logo, this one gives me many more options and is easier to modify as needed. In particular it’s going to reproduce better and be more readable—even at very small sizes—on t-shirts and other merchandise.

Thanks, Diego!

Original art by Matt Baker for the cover of WARTIME ROMANCES #10, 1952.

Dance Sex

Dance Sex

Below is the original romance art from the 1960s.

Of course, the original dialog is totally innocent—in context. But, if you want to read it as a continuation of my Last Kiss dialog…wow! Those are two horny kids!

Apparently they’ve decided that some “like sex” isn’t as much fun as the real thing.

SCENE: A man and woman are holding hands at a dance.

MAN: Gee! Dancing is like sex! It’s more fun with a partner!
