Yesterday, I was looking for a paperback cover that would go well with Fat Thursday. I couldn’t find one so I went with this one instead. This cover was also used for a book called Desire Island so I guess it’s possible that De Fatale Sex-Bom is just the international version of Desire Island. The cover was done by George Ziel.

It’s Love, Part 9
Happy Valentine’ Day!
Today is the day that we celebrate love!
Love isn’t always easy! As we all know, Valentine’s Day can be difficult when you’re single. Everyone around you is bragging about how in love they are and you just want them to shut up and leave you alone. If you are among those who are single today, do not worry and do not despair. You’re not the first person to find yourself in this situation and you won’t be the last. Though you may feel like you, you are not alone. The path to true love is never an easy one to travel but the destination makes the trip worth it. Even in the 1950s and the 1960s and the 1970s, Valentine’s Day wasn’t for everyone.
As difficult as it can be to find true love, it’s always worth the search!
So. if you’re alone or if you’re a part of a couple, if you’re single or married, in love or simply enjoying life, happy February 14th! May it be a good day, no matter what it means to you.

The Heart-Breaking Covers of Girls’ Love Stories
Published from 1949 to 1973 by DC Comcis, Girls’ Love Stories was a romance comic. Today, it’s probably best remembered for its melodramatic covers, many of which were later recreated by pop artist Roy Lichtenstein. As you can tell by looking at the covers below, happiness was not easy to find for the women of Girls’ Love Stories. Everyone was either a cheater or, even worse, they had a “reputation.”
