Doris is crazy about her man.

And maybe she’s a little crazy about other things too.

Things that romance comics—even in the swinging 1960s—didn’t talk about.

I love this.

The idea of not dating women as a revenue source is perfect for me. Pay me and I promise not to date you.*

For a little more, family are rates available. (I promise not to date your daughter, mother and—-granny? I promise not to date her for free.)

Guys, I don’t want you to feel left out. I wasn’t planning to date any of you. But why take chances. Send me some money to be safe.

*This offer is void if you happen to be my wife.
