Stories and art by Marc Swayze and John Martin. This early romance comic from Fawcett had particularly complex plots to go with the tears and kisses. Joan stows away on a military air transport to be closer to Ned, the pilot she loves. But that's the worst mistake she could make, in a story with art by Marc Swayze that purports to be based on true events. When Jeff returns from the war with a walking disability, he tells Josie they must give up on the house they've been building together. But she protests so strongly, he wonders if it was really the house she wanted all along. Joan finds a way to get even with Ellen for stealing her boyfriend Doug, but new beau Wally sees through her charade. Plus profiles of 1950s Hollywood heartthrobs Wendell Corey and June Allyson. Honor Bright; I Stowed Away on an Air Transport!; The House That Love Built; Dream Beau of the Month: Wendell Corey; Dream Girl of the Month: June Allyson; Yesterday's Tears! Final issue of the series; Charlton resumed the title under new numbering with Romantic Secrets (1953 Charlton) #5. 32 pages, Full Color Cover price $0.10.
