Getting a…Broad?

Getting a…Broad?

No! I’m not seriously suggesting that anyone joins the military to get a guy (or a gal.) However, if you do end up with a guy (or a gal), then good for you.

(By the way, if you’re in the military you don’t need to cosplay. You’re already in a sexy costume.)

Art by Vince Colletta Studio from the story “I Chose Heartbreak” in FIRST KISS #37, 1964.

I’ve Dated the Army, the Navy…

I’ve Dated the Army, the Navy…

Happy Veteran’s Day. And a heartfelt thanks to everyone who has served.

My thanks to my friend Donald Flowers who encouraged me to add some missing details to the U.S. Air Force uniform in today’s comic. And a special thank you to my pal Robert Zailo who added those details to the art. We’ll be seeing more of Robert’s work in the future.
