Two more short, disturbing tales of Love, somehow classified as "Weird". A girl is saved and smitten by a ghostly and supernaturally handsome man! Another girl's mother hates her taste in Rock 'n' Roll music! What do these stories have in common? It's hard to say, but they're both absurdly funny and weirdly entertaining!

Hey, Romanticists! It's time for another spell-binding episode of My Comical Romance. Actually, it's time for TWO episodes. This month, we offer two brand new stories to amuse and bemuse you. The first, "Bride of the Month," manages to fit an entire intriguing and exciting story of love and marriage lost and found into a single page! The second, slightly longer, brings us controversy and angst between generations: were the Roaring Twenties really any different than the Decadent Seventies? Listen and find out!

In a rare Romance episode in which our hero and heroine are ALREADY married, wife Joan feels helpless as husband Dan struggles with the family finances (and demeans her offers of support).

In today's episode, "Kiss of Death," we once again visit with lovelorn Cynthia Doyle, Nurse in Love, to see if this time, maybe she can get her beloved Doctor Benson to notice her... In today's episode, she's aided by the fact that the doctor gets bitten by a dog, which might have... rabies! Meanwhile, they also have to deal with a young society woman who is about to give birth, and wants nothing to do with her impending child. What does all this have to do with Romance?

Welcome to Season 4 of My Comical Romance! (not season 5 as we mistakenly say in the podcast...) Today we have our first encounter with Cynthia Doyle, Nurse in Love! A dedicated and passionate care-giver, Nurse Doyle caters to both the medical and romantic needs of countless patients, while carrying her own secret love for the handsome Dr. Benson! In today's episode, "The Case of the Teenage Mother," Cynthia employs her "women's intuition," in addition to her nurse's training, to help solve the mystery of a young teenage girl who shows up at the hospital in a catatonic state -- undoubtedly due to some kind of Love crisis!

In this episode -- the case he calls "The Girl Who Couldn't Say Yes" -- he has to help poor Pat, a rising young star with a special problem. She wants to marry handsome, successful Errol (and who wouldn't?), but each time he proposes to her, she simply can't bring herself to say Yes!

We go down a more treacherous path with this episode, with a trigger warning for content that relates somewhat uncomfortably to pedophilia. In this story, reclusive, nerdy George doesn't want to party with any of the other kids on the beach -- he keeps to himself and his books, overlooking his obligation to make himself available to all the interested girls. Crafty Diane reveals to her diary how she schemes to trick George into falling for her -- by pretending to be a "kid" -- a 12-year-old girl -- rather than the eligible young woman that she is... Will George fall for the trap? Or will he notice that his "pal" isn't quite the child she pretends to be...? Reach out to us at MyComicalRomance2020@gmail.com!

Hi everyone, we have a special episode this time. We had a chance to meet Marvel and DC Comics legend Roy Thomas, and even asked him his opinion of Romance Comics. And this episode features one of the first comics that Thomas ever (half-)wrote, and his only ever foray into the Romance genre! Here we find Linda, who is happy in love with her boyfriend Jim, but she just can't get over the fact that he seems unwilling to fight bullies on her behalf. Maybe she wants a super-hero instead? Will Jim the pacifist give in to Linda's demands and beat up some hooligans for her, or is she right, that he's just a coward...? Reach out to us at MyComicalRomance2020@gmail.com!

Poor Eloise was heart-broken when (at age 14) her boyfriend dumped her for another girl! Now she can't seem to attract other boys, she's always so shy and nervous. Until... her friend gives her the book that holds the answers to all her troubles: "How to Get Your Man"! Reach out to us at MyComicalRomance2020@gmail.com!

Poor Ruth, her marriage didn't work out so well -- considering that her husband drove off and got himself killed. She's so sad -- not that he's dead, but that they really weren't so happy in the marriage in the first place -- and decides that she will never fall in love again! We know how that usually ends...

It's the late 1960s, and anyone who's hip is a swinger! They hang out at wild parties where everybody just kisses everybody else, and nobody seems to mind. Except for poor Miss Goody Two-Shoes! She's in love with Rick and wants him all to herself. The only problem is that he sees her as such a square, he prefers her hip best friend Carol -- and they both enjoy playing the field!

This is the comic that "they dared us to print"! Who dared them, we're not sure, but the story concerns "Liz," a girl who is "strange," in that she doesn't seem to like boys! The other girls tease her and her mother is deeply concerned. Back in 1974, it was not easy being different, and a romance comic might not have been the best place to find guidance...

In this brief but rather infamous story, published in 1970, naive young Beverly likes going on dates with handsome Nick, but he is so bossy and gruff, telling her what to eat, where to go, taking total charge of the relationship... she wonders if it always has to be this way with a man. Then she attends a rally for "Female Freedom," and her eyes are opened to the inequalities all around her! But how will Beverly's love life fare, now that No Man is Her Master??

This is a special episode for several reasons. We have an (experimental) accompanying Youtube video for the first time, which you can find beginning at: https://youtu.be/6ZvHybw_x3w. There you can see not only our smiling faces, but images from the artwork we're presenting. This includes some famous paintings by Roy Lichtenstein, who "borrowed" romance comic images for his artwork. We talk about this phenomenon, then delve into the adventure attached to one of his most popular works, "Run for Love"! Here we find the unfortunate Vickie, the ugly (or less gorgeous) duckling among her sisters, who is, however, a scholar, a top-flight mechanic, life guard, among other accomplishments, but wouldn't you know it, she can't seem to get a Man! Until she happens upon the rudest, most unappreciative man you'll ever find, so of course she falls head over heels for him... Reach out to us at MyComicalRomance2020@gmail.com!

This month we go back to the hallowed halls of DC's Young Love to take a look at the romantic trials of Martha, a poor woman who has loved and lost the man of her dreams to her best friend/bitter rival, Lola! Now Lola and Kirk are about to be married and there's no hope in sight for dear Martha! Or is there? What if Lola's been secretly comically horrible all along?!

This episode we take a look our very first makeover story! Astrid Franklin has a dreamy husband, but all she cares about is keeping the apartment clean. She doesn't at all tend to her weight, her hair, her...hunchback? What will she do when she learns the hard way that it's a woman's RESPONSIBILITY to be attractive to her man if she expects to keep him? Once again we're tackling an issue that doesn't exactly hold to feminist beliefs but this is a story that takes the physical transformation of the makeover trope to another level! Marvel at the plastic surgeon who does everything but his job. Wonder at how easy it is to become a movie star. And be boggled once again by the weird mind of Ogden Whitney!
