Dear in the Headlights: As a man necks with his sweetheart, the viewer's eyes are inexorably drawn to her décolletage.

"Produced at the same Manhattan sweatshops that generated every other type of comic book, romance comics were written and drawn by hungry, nimble young writers and artists.... With romance comics came a rare opportunity not only to release their anima but to tap personal experience." — David Hadju, The Ten-Cent Plague: The Great Comic-Book Scare and How It Changed America.
