This is the second of two Christmas gags written by my pal Jennifer M. Contino–the self-pronounced “Queen of Christmas comics.” (Even Santa doesn’t have as many Christmas-themed comic books as her!)

Today’s comic features a gag by my friend Jennifer M. Contino. For many years, Jen was a comics journalist (Entertainment Weekly, Wizard, Sequential Tart and others.)
These days, she’s the self-pronounced “Queen of Christmas comics.” (Even Santa doesn’t have a Christmas comic book collection as big as hers!)
Tomorrow, we’ll have another Felina Vie Christmas comic written by me. And the following day (Saturday), Jen will be back with a new Christmas-themed Last Kiss gag.
Original Vintage Art & Text
Inked by Dick Giordano. From the story “My Foolish Heart” in First Kiss #21, July 1961. Charlton. The story begins on Page 26.

I’m delighted to have another Felina Vie photo in Last Kiss. My thanks to both Felina as well as photographer Allen Freeman for letting me use it.
And I’m happy to say we’ll have another Felina photo by Allen two days from now.
Postscript: This wasn’t planned, but I just learned that today (Dec. 19) is Felina’s birthday. Feel free to say Happy Birthday. I’ll make sure Felina sees this.
↓ TranscriptSCENE: Model Felina Vie is dress in a red negligee, gloves, stockings and high heels as she lies on a red carpet.
FELINA: I know you’re trying to get out of the “red,” but…maybe you could make an exception for me!
