Star Love Stories #617
"Headline Romance" in Star Love Stories #617 (1976) delivers a charming, low-key twist on celebrity and identity, as famed folk singer Wendy—quietly studying journalism under her real name—finds herself unexpectedly face-to-face with her idol, reporter Bill, at her hotel’s back entrance. With Francesc Monjo handling both art and inks, the story unfolds with gentle humor and a touch of romantic tension, as Bill remains blissfully unaware of the star he’s been sent to interview.
