We did a theatrical adaptation of romance comic books over valentines' day this year! http://banishedproductions.org/productions.html (pictures on facebook: http://www.facebook.com/group.php?gid=59997932190) We're hoping to workshop it and stage a remount, and Nolan's book (I just started!) along with Benson's "Confessions" book have been very exciting to read. Just wanted to find out if there were any favorite romance stories or sources out there you'd like to share, and if you'd like to be kept apprised! :) I was googling Michelle Nolan (to get more info on her) and found this entry and blog!

I read most of the GA romance I can find; the stories are usually quite good and the characters often excellently designed. The ACG line in particular is worth reading and many of them can be downloaded at the GA UK site. Unfortunately, the Silver Age Romance stories were not as well-designed although you could catch some upcoming artists like John Romita and Gene Colan before they were doing the superheros.
