Kissing the Bride

Kissing the Bride

Someday soon? The poor groom can only hope!

Art by Vince Colletta from the story “Involuntary Bride” in FIRST KISS #40, 1965.

If you’re wondering about the bizarre color, 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. Colors were frequently misaligned. But to print with an entire color plate missing? That was rare—even for Charlton!

Welcome to LepreCon

Welcome to LepreCon

Happy St. Patrick’s Day from me and my partner in today’s comic shenanigans—Mike Pascale.

In addition to transforming a guy in a striped suit (see first panel below) into a leprechaun, Mike provided today’s “lepre-con” pun.

By the way, today’s comic is a mashup of two panels from FIRST KISS Comics. See below.

Art by the Vince Colletta Studio from FIRST KISS #8, 1959.

 

Artist unknown. Art from the story “The Love that Failed” in FIRST KISS #25, 1962.
