A Very Marry Christmas
Happy Holidays!
Original Vintage Art & Text
If you’re wondering about the bizarre color in the art below, the whole page of the printed comic is this way. It wasn’t unusual for Charlton comics to be printed with colors out of register. But to print with an entire color plate missing? That was rare—even for Charlton!
Art by Vince Colletta from the story “Involuntary Bride” in First Kiss #40, 1965. Published by Charlton. The story begins on Page 24 of comicbookplus’s fabulous, free online reprint here.
