More Last Kiss fun from Tony Isabella & Diego Jourdan Pereira!
Original Vintage Art & Text
Art possibly by Robert Webb. From Secret Romances #13, 1958. Superior Comics. (No link because the original comic is not online.)
↓ TranscriptSCENE: Woman with multi-colored hair sitting in front of a typewriter, thinking with a pencil's eraser to her cheek.
MULTI-COLORED HAIR WOMAN (We see her letter in her thoughts):
“Mr. Lustig…
“I was shocked to find your Last Kiss cartoons are filled with degenerate people…
...doing and saying the most salacious things!
“Please continue
in this manner!
“I haven’t been
this titillated…
since my Roller
Derby days.”
Sincerely yours,
Agnes

Are you a moron?
To find out, just send me all your available cash.
As soon as I receive it, I’ll know if you’re a moron. And you’ll know too—because I’ll contact you. And ask for a lot more money.

This is an update of a comic I did in the early 2000s for Comics Buyer’s Guide. Back then rare comics (like Action Comics #1) were “cheap.” You could’ve gotten one for a few hundred thousand dollars!
