I'll Be Alone..., previously published in Secrets of Young Brides #5, March 1976 All of these stories previously appeared in Charlton comics from the 1960's-1970's. Some also appeared in other Murray comics. Murray's romance one-shots in this period appeared under the Murray Romance Library imprint. Oddly, this one is under the regular black Murray Comics logo which, for a time after March 1982, superseded the red Murray Comics logo. Indeed this issue contains two in-house advertisements for romance comics, one of which includes the Murray Romance Library logo, and the other - for Our Love Story - doesn't. The typeface for the masthead is one often used by Murray in this period, for example on Cowboy Adventures and Renegade Raiders, and is slanted to the left - evidently it was, y'know, liberated... |

OMG! I know Charlton were (in)famous for dreadful colouring but this takes the cake… a lesson in EVERY incorrect colour to use with other colours.
For once the Murray re-colouring is (far) superior to an original.
