    1st printing. Edited by Michael Barson. A pop-culture phenomenon, romance comic books numbered in the hundreds in the late 1940s and 1950s.

Agonized Love is a colorful return to that era. An anthology of vintage love comics covers, advertisements, advice columns, and full reproduction of numerous stories, this colorful volume is a collection of the best the genre had to offer during its heyday in the late 1940s and 1950s. This book is a valentine to the era. It will be of interest to comics and graphic novel fans, those with an interest in nostalgia, and the chick-lit audience.
