I was proud of today’s title “Gone Today, Beer Tomorrow”…’til it occurred to me that it had come to me a little too easily. So I Googled the phrase and it came up 2,440,000 times.
Obviously all these other people were clairvoyant and stole my idea—before I thought of it.
Today’s original art (above) is from First Kiss #5 (1958) and it’s a bit sparse on verbiage so I’m throwing in some extra panels.

The original art is from “A Kiss is Merely a Biological Phenomenon” which first appeared in Career Girl Romances #49. How odd is this story?
The main character is a nerd similar to Sheldon Cooper (of The Big Bang Theory)…if he was a girl…sent back in time to 1969.
I posted the entire story here for your jaw-dropping, oh-my-god pleasure.
