Whether it’s Exotic Romances or the girl who "sinned in secret and paid in public" there’s a host of wondrously camp artwork to enjoy. The accompanying book reveals the history of romance comics, with quirky stories to amuse your curious friends! Whether they’re unlucky in love, or happily settled, Lovelorn makes a perfect gift for fans of comics, pop culture and retro chic.
