Art by Marguerite Sauvage, Ivan Shavrin, M.l. Sanapo, Baldemar Rivas, Ted Brandt & Ro Stein, Leonardo Rodrigues, Nick Robles. Romance is rarely a simple affair--love is almost always followed by some sort of conflict. Whether you're Plastic Man twisting yourself into knots trying to please someone, or the Flash traveling back in time to make a catastrophic 50 first dates perfect, or even a lonely robot who just can't seem to find love unless it's mail from a computer screen, like Red Tornado, love actually is...a pain in the 27 dresses. So in the grand tradition of these dating conundrums a la rom-coms of the '90s and '00s, we are proud to present eight new stories about love and trying to find it in this zany world. 80 pages, full color. Rated T+ Cover price $9.99.
