About the series
A 24-issue series from IDW, Weird Love (2014–2018) mined the strange, forgotten corners of 1950s romance comics, reprinting bizarre and often unsettling stories of love, longing, and heartbreak. Curated by Clizia Gussoni and Craig Yoe, the anthology spotlighted the era's distinctive art from talents like Bob Powell, the Iger Shop, and Eugene Hughes, whose work gave these vintage tales a surreal, pop-art edge. It matters as a loving, offbeat excavation of a niche genre, revealing how mid-century romance comics could be as weird and wild as any monster or space story.
