B&V Friends Double Digest Magazine #275
In "A Chip Off the Old Bloke!", Veronica tries to impress a new student by wearing her late great grandmother’s glasses—only to find herself unexpectedly drawn into a deep, almost overwhelming fascination with knowledge. Written by Dan Parent and illustrated by Jeff Shultz, with inks by Al Milgrom and letters by Bill Yoshida, this story explores the curious side effects of a family heirloom that might be more than just a memory. The cover, also by Jeff Shultz, captures Veronica’s new, scholarly transformation in striking detail.
