Confessions of the Lovelorn #77

In "The Man Who Got Away!", high school student Jayne finds herself drawn to Harry, a much older business associate of her father, only to watch him marry someone else. Years later, after a string of disappointing relationships in New York, Jayne returns to her hometown and confronts the man she once idealized—now a rapidly aging, unrecognizable version of the figure she’d long admired. With a poignant mix of nostalgia and revelation, she finally makes peace with the past. The story, illustrated with sharp, expressive detail by Ken Bald—both in the interior and on the cover—captures a quiet, bittersweet journey of growing up, all drawn in the distinctive style of the era.
