This may be the only Gila Monster action-adventure-romance story in existence. Drawn by Ward King, it was one of many “Sheriff Sal” stories. This one originally appeared in Western Adventures #6, 1949.

Secret Romance #21 featured two lovers at a masquerade party.
Earlier this week, I posted the current Couple-Up caption contest and some people “made an ass out of you and me.” In short, they a-s-s-u-m-e-d!
They looked at the contest art and went “Ah ha! That’s Black Canary and Green Arrow!”
That’s okay because I a-s-s-u-m-e-d they would.
After all, the characters look like Black Canary and Green Arrow. And Mike Grell—who contributed the opening contest caption—is famous for (among other things) writing and drawing Black Canary and Green Arrow.
But guess what—they’re not Black Canary and Green Arrow.
The art is actually a recreation—by Diego Jourdan Pereira—of the cover of Secret Romance #21 from 1972 . When my original guest writer had to drop out, Diego suggested the obvious: Mike Grell!
Sex, zombies and casual (sex) Fridays—my Last Kiss eBooks have all that and more!
Each themed collection features—many of my best Last Kiss comics; plus commentaries; and samples of the original 1950s-’60s art.

Submit dialogue as a comment to this post. (See Comment section below.)

I recently posted a panel from Young Doctors #2 that showed what to do when a maniac is threatening to kill you. (You offer him a Coke.)
From the same story, here’s what you offer a woman who’s threatening to kill herself.
