Good Girls #2

In "Monica dreams of Hal," Carol Lay delivers a quietly striking story where Irene, masked and mysterious, steps into a world of unexpected social tension at a cosmetics party—her hidden face drawing both shock and curiosity, especially from a child who sees something different. Meanwhile, Kurt’s growing awareness of Irene’s true identity leads him on a quiet search, the distance between who she is and who he thinks she is widening with every unanswered knock. The issue, written and illustrated entirely by Carol Lay, features her distinctive, intimate artwork and a cover by her as well.
