Happy Valentine’s Day from the amazing Mike Pascale (and the lovely, but talented me.)
Once again Mike has taken old romance art from my archive—(see original below)—and turned it into something cool. And, let’s face, kinda creepy.
In fact, this may be the creepiest Last Kiss Valentine character comic since my dirty, old mail carrier. Hmm. Okay, he’s even creepier.
Way to go Mike!

Art from First Kiss #32 (1963.) Artist unknown.
↓ TranscriptSCENE: A penthouse exterior looking out over a city. A man is dressed up as Cupid---wearing a diaper and carrying a bow and arrow. A woman in a cocktail dress looks on alarmed.
MAN: But it’s Valentine’s Day!
WOMAN: You know I don’t date men in diapers…anymore!

No, I’ve never smoked marijuana. But, yes, marijuana seems much safer to me than tobacco. And booze. And possibly Twinkies.
But then, we won’t have to worry about that, will we?

Original art from First Kiss #16 (1960)
↓ TranscriptSCENE: Guy smoking cigarette as a woman watches.
MAN: Sure, cigarettes will kill me! But at least I’m not smoking dope!
WOMAN: Dope indeed!

In regard to the original art below…
Sexual harassment is such an ugly term. Let’s call it a date instead!

↓ TranscriptSCENE: Man and woman having dinner together as a waiter looks on in disapproval.
MAN: Sure, I sleep with my wife! But, other than that...I almost
never cheat on you!
