- Unsigned, but a typical Colletta cover that shows his strengths and weaknesses. He was a master at surfaces. On this cover we see different patterns in the girls shirt, the man's scarf, the stone pattern in the wall and on the floor. Much of his drawing was old reused poses from Toth and his own previous work, but the finishing is creative to say the least. - Ger Apeldoorn

Notes: The girls faces are DeCarlo-like, so I guess it could be a story by Goldberg?

I think we discussed this one. Another Jean in this oen. She falls in love with Neil Elliott, a wonderful man who asks her to marry him... but they are completely different. She likes to do active things when she goes out... tennis and horseback riding... he likes to go to the theatre and other stuff you can do in the big city. When she meets his divorced mother she wonders if a marriage between two such different people can work. The readers are asked about their advice... and the story is resumed two issues later. - Ger Apeldoorn
