Sex or Comics?

Sex or Comics?

While I’ve used this gag before (with very different art), I couldn’t resist reviving it now since I’ll be at Comic-Con International in San Diego all week.

(You can find me and oodles of Last Kiss art at Prism Comics—Booth #2144. (See my scheduled hours.) Plus additional Last Kiss goodies are for sale at World Famous Comics—Booth #5560.)

No honeymoon for me, however. But I do expect to read a few comics this week—possibly in bed!

Pencils by Charles Nicholas. ( Inks possibly by Jon D'Agostino.) From the story "The End of the Honeymoon" in BRIDES IN LOVE #1, 1956.
