Veronica #120

In "It's Not a Good Thing," Veronica finds herself swept up in the world of home decorating after meeting guru Maggie Stewrich, whose advice transforms her life—except when it comes to the kitchen. When Veronica secretly hires Maggie to cook a meal, their shared passion for perfection leads to a clash of egos that turns a simple dinner into a full-blown showdown. Written and drawn by Dan Parent, with inks by Jim Amash, colors by Barry Grossman, and letters by Bill Yoshida, this 2002 issue features a cover by Jeff Shultz and Henry Scarpelli.
