In "Maggie Come Home," Lisa stumbles upon a strange conspiracy targeting Springfield’s kids when a misunderstanding with the new baby-sitters union leads to Maggie vanishing into the labyrinth of organized labor. Written by Ian Boothby and illustrated by James Lloyd, with inks by Tim Bavington, colors by Nathan Kane, and letters by Jeannine Black, this 2000 Bongo Comics issue blends suburban satire with a touch of bureaucratic absurdity. The cover, by Mike Rote, captures the chaos in bold, expressive lines.
