SECRET HEARTS "David!"

Dont worry, neurotic Mary Robin R.N., isn't back...

...but, since this tale does present a romantic triangle with a nurse at one corner, that's an understandable assessment!

Written by Gerry Conway, penciled by Alex Toth, and inked by Dick Giordano (using the pen name "Ric Dano"), this cover-featured, never-reprinted story of two sisters, a guy, and misunderstanding from DC's Secret Hearts #149 (1971) is typical of the romance genre.

BTW, the reason Giordano used a pen-name is that he was the editor of the book, and technically, an editor wasn't supposed to edit their own material...whether it was script or art!
But it happened a lot more frequently than most thought, mainly due to tight deadlines!

WILD "Florence Nightgown"

Almost everyone in medical practice (especially nursing) knows of, and is inspired by...

...the founder of modern nursing, Florence Nightingale, OM/RRC/DStJ.

However, our tale today sure as heck ain't about her...

Illustrated by Al Hartley, this never-reprinted story from Atlas' Wild #3 (1954) was typical of the four MAD comic clones (Riot/Snafu/Crazy/Wild) the company had out at the same time!

Each one had a parody of a historical figure, a spoof of a current movie/tv/radio show, a humorous look at a genre like horror/Western/romance/crime, and a couple of 1-2 page features about almost anything!
