In "Booby Trapped!", Kitty finds herself at a comic shop, reflecting on the sharp decline of her once-mighty series—remembering the days when it sold a million copies a month—while fretting over what her publishers might do next to revive flagging sales. Written by Fernando Ruiz and illustrated by Dan Parent, J. Bone, Bill Golliher, Gisèle Lagacé, with inks by Rich Koslowski and J. Bone, colors by Glenn Whitmore, and letters by Janice Chiang, the issue captures a sharp, self-aware moment in the life of a creator caught between nostalgia and the pressures of the industry. The cover, by Dan Parent, perfectly frames her wry, weary expression as she stares at the shelves.
