About the series
Published by Horwitz from 1957 to 1958, Real Love was a ten-issue romance comic that captured the earnest melodrama of the era through stories of courtship, heartbreak, and devotion. The series is most consistently associated with the art of Maurice Bramley, whose clean, expressive style gave visual life to the emotional highs and lows of its romantic narratives. Though brief, it stands as a representative example of the post-war romance boom in Australian comics, offering a snapshot of the genre's conventions and its appeal to readers seeking sentimental escapism.
