| Name | Love Lessons 1 | Published |
| Publication | Price: 0.10 USD | Pages: 36 | Frequency: every other month |

| Genre | Romance |
| Notes | Title was originally to be "Love Letters" but Quality Comics secured right to the title first, but Harvey was evidently not aware until the comic had been printed. Harvey's solution was to overprint the masthead on the existing comics with silver ink to obscure "Letters" and then added "Lessons" in red ink on top of the silver. Two slightly different cover variants exist. |
