Transcript:

Scene: A male prisoner is carrying an unconscious woman in his arms and away from a large building (a prison?) in the background.

MAN (thinking): I saved the warden from the riot and got her to safety! But even if this wins me parole…I’ll never be free! I’m a prisoner of love!

CAPTION: It was always just a matter of time before Tony’s love of Mel Brooks would get “Last Kiss” into legal trouble.

1951 Pencils: Mat Baker

A Law Against Love

A Law Against Love

Sorry. No original art this time. This image is a bit of a mashup. I used art from an old Bill Ward romance comic for the jail bars. And art from another romance story drawn by the Vince Colletta Studio for the woman.

Transcript:

SCENE: A woman behind bars.

WOMAN: Golly! Apparently being in love is against the law now…when you charge for it!
