The lovely art for this gag came to me courtesy of the late Dick Giordano. In 2001, Dick loaned me a large stack of his Charlton romance art so that I could scan it for Last Kiss.
Charlton probably paid less than any of the other comic publishers. But, oh man…looking at Dick’s work, you’d think it was paying him with trucks full of gold bullion. Dick’s covers were gorgeous.
