In "A Good Judge of Beauty," Moronica ventures into the countryside to recover from a cold, only to misidentify a skunk as a cat—thanks to her sniffle-induced nose—bringing her furry mistake back to the city. Owen Fitzgerald handles both art and inks, capturing the humor and charm of the situation with crisp, expressive lines.

Contains 5 stories
A Good Judge of Beauty
10 pp · Humor, Teen

Solid Jackson brings a statue to a party and gets mocked for his taste in beauty—but when his pal Natch suggests running a "Miss Teen-Ager of 1950" contest to attract pretty girls from neighboring towns, Jackson jumps at the chance to be the judge and finally escape the unwanted attention of the persistent Portia. As word spreads and contestants flood in from all over, Jackson finds himself at the center of more female attention than he bargained for, with a magazine photographer on hand to capture the whole chaotic affair.

Moronica, sniffle-prone and convinced fresh air will cure her cold, retreats to the countryside—only to misidentify a skunk as a cat, thanks to her sniffless condition. Bringing her new "pet" back to the city, she’s blissfully unaware of the stink she’s unleashed, much to the dismay of Officer Clancy, who’s already had a long day.

Pig in a Poke
9 pp · Humor, Domestic

When Edgar spots a bargain vacuum cleaner for thirty dollars in an alley, he's convinced he's struck gold—proof that his smart shopping sense beats paying nearly ninety bucks for the same machine. But when the family tries it out, they discover the "bargain" is completely hollow, and Edgar's big spender reputation comes crashing down faster than his pride. Now he's got to figure out how to salvage both his money and his dignity before his wife and kids see him for the scheming motormouth he's been.
