  Martinet has updated DC Comics' classic romance strips with new dialogue, replacing the schmaltz of yesteryear with hilarious, piercing observations on the pursuit of love in the 21st century. Ten all-new knowing tales of love, betrayal and heartbreak exchange the simple sweetness of the originals for something more absurd and neurotic befitting the Bridget Jones generation. My Heart said Yes, But My Therapist said No! , I Hate My Hair! and Loving Gay Men! and seven other supremely twisted lessons in love are included. The tales are interspersed with deranged advice columns by highly suspect love experts .
