Publication history
As with many comic book titles published at the time, I Love You did not start with issue number one. Its first issue was #7, continuing the numbering of the Charlton romance title In Love, which published two issues in 1955. (Charlton had picked up In Love from the defunct Mainline Publications [operated by Jack Kirby and Joe Simon], which published the first four issues.) Early issues of I Love You sported the tagline "True Love Stories."
Charlton published 115 issues of I Love You from July 1955 – December 1976. After a nearly three-year hiatus, Charlton resumed the series with issue #122 in March 1979. I Love You ran for nine more issues – most of which were filled with reprints – finally ending for good with issue #130 in May 1980.
Recurring features
Starting in the mid-1960s, I Love You featured rotating advice columns by Jeannette Copeland and Harold Gluck. Copeland's column was known as "Just Jeannette," while Gluck's were alternately titled "Canteen Corner" and "Teen-Age Troubles." In the mid-1970s, Jennifer White's "Jennifer's Corner" took over as the advice column.
In 1972–1973, the comic started featuring cameos by pop singers and actors such as Bobby Sherman, Susan Dey, Shirley Jones, and David Cassidy.
The last few issues featured a letter column edited by Buck Mason called "Buck's Bag."
