MINISERIES FINALE The stunning conclusion of JEFF LEMIRE’S surreal and heart-rending series! Officer Danny Laraque frantically searches for Franny, Franny tries to get an answer from Bug, Bug looks for forgiveness, and Helen still hangs on to hope in the hospital with her son, Paul. It’s all connected and looping into each other at the height of the fishflies’ annual summer return to Belle River.

Bardzo dobra historia z satysfakcjonującym zakończeniem. Dramat, horror i fantasy w jednym. Dużo tu o dziecięcej samotności oraz odkupieniu win. W sumie proste rozwiązania fabularne, a chwytające za serce. Jak zawsze u Lemira jest sugestywny klimat i wspaniale wykreowane postacie, których losami się przejmujemy. Świetna przygoda!
A satisfying yet fairly lowkey ending to the series. I expected a bit more but I was still emotionally stirred by the conclusion at the convenience store that started it all. Sometimes it's the simplest things that hit you hardest. Jeff Lemire has this brilliant uncanny ability to make the strangest images and situations absolutely emotionally wreck you. I will be an unwavering Lemire fan forever.
Fishflies, Jeff Lemire Lemire is unique, his stories are deeply emotional and tend to amplifies what rural living in Canada might be like. His illustrations are other-worldly yet simply obvious. This peculiar Kafka-ish story is a must-read, I couldn't put it down. ****
