The Great 2017 St. Valentine's Day Romance Comic Massacre
« on: February 14, 2017, 02:36:43 AM »

Welcome to the CB+/DCM "Great 2017 St. Valentine's Day Romance Massacre"
My fellow scanners & editors and I have cooked up an amazing 237 scans of
public domain GA & SA romance comics! 50 books will from 1960 and later and will
be available only here on CB+.  Also, the CB+ versions of some of the DCM safe books
will include bonus pages of original art.

This would not have been possible without the amazing generousity of
Jim Vadeboncoeur, Jr.(JVJ). A huge chunk of this flood is from the JVJ Collection,
which unfortunately he no longer has. This flood will put the JVJ Archive
( maintained on CB+ at: https://comicbookplus.com/?cbplus=jvjarchive_s_s_0 )
well past the 4000 books mark. Once again, thanks Jim!

There are also books from the SOB (Sooth's Old Books), Titansfan & Kracalactaka
collections.

Huge thanks to Mark & Yoc, the respective admins, for helping facilitate this.

And thanks to all the scanners & editors who have made a lot of effort to bring you
all these books: Rangerhouse, Soothsayr, Titansfan, Movielover, A Nonny Moose, Yoc,
Dave Hayward, Comicwanderer, David Miles & Kracalactaka.
