Stallman, Manny Romance (Harvey)
"Happy Ending" is the Comics Code mandated version of "Temptress" and appeared as such in First Romance #45 ( Harvey, 1957 ). Thanks to the artistry of Hart Rieckhof you are now able to see the story, as it must have been drawn originally, next to the censored story. When I received the artwork from Heritage, half of the text corrections had slipped off the pages and were enclosed in a plastic bag, the rest were loosely attached and came off easily. The original title and splash had been radically changed. I have tried my best to reconstruct the original drawings throughout the story, but it was very difficult to recreate Manny Stallmanīs expressionistic inks on the large figure in the splash. Although the panels are almost identical with approx 50% of the dialog unchanged, a careful read of the two stories is mindboggling. What sick mind decided to ruin this story in the name of the Comics Code? I doubt that Manny Stallman was involved, most likely a staff artist did the changes. PS : After I created my own version of the splash, Ben Samuels has been kind enough to supply the original printed version of "Temptress" from First Romance #28. Thanks, Ben.
