The dialog in the original 1960s art (right) leaves us hanging. Anyone want to come up with a clever suggestion to finish her thought balloon? What is her husband doing that she’s the last to know about?

Here’s the original art.
Remember, guys. Stay in school!
Otherwise your girlfriend won’t love you.Then you’ll start drinking even more than you do now.
And you’ll end up spending all your time browsing Internet porn and web comics.
Oops. Too late.

The original First Kiss story “Magic in the Moon” is the tale of Plain Amy.
Amy’s self-esteem is lower than a snake’s waistline. And there’s no chance she’ll ever fall in love. Ever.
But then…
Amy becomes a contestant on a TV show and wins…a complete makeover!
Extra goodies include a Florida vacation and a hot dude to be her hired heartthrob.
It’s true love…Hollywood Style!
↓ TranscriptSCENE: On the set of a TV talk show a young woman looks stunned as the host talks.
TV SHOW HOST: Surprise! Our next guest is your husband’s other secret wife!

This time I’m running the entire page of original art. This opening page is so catty that it’d be shame to limit it to just one panel.
