If I were single, I’m sure I’d get into all sorts of trouble in my quest to find a good woman. (Or a bad one.)

“A Kiss is Merely a Biological Phenomenon“ is not the oddest romance story I’ve ever read. Not by far! But it’s the only one that seems like a (bad) skit from TV’s The Big Bang Theory.
It first appeared in Charlton’s Career Girl Romances #49 back in 1969—way before being a nerd was cool.
As if being a nerd isn’t bad enough, the main character has the added handicap of being a girl. And, of course, she isn’t interested in love or sex because—well, she’s a brainy geek and much too smart for that nonsense.
She also seems to have no understanding of social graces or—as far as I can tell—human emotion. In short, if The Big Bang‘s Sheldon Cooper were hurled back to 1969 and turned into a girl—this would be her.

As any nerd knows, “centrifuge” is merely a scientific euphemism for “disgusting man parts!”
While I won’t be at the Las Vegas Comic Expo, lots of Last Kiss goodies will be for sale there. My pals at World Famous Comics are selling Last Kiss tote bags, fridge magnets, and prints at Booth #706. If you’re attending, please give them all your money. That isn’t too much to ask, is it?
