Frogcatchers | Jeff Lemire
2 posts | 4 read | 6 to read
Experience a surreal descent into one man’s psychosis in this haunting and chilling graphic novel from the New York Times bestselling author of Roughneck and Sweet Tooth, “the Stephen King of comics” (Maclean’s). A man wakes up alone in a strange room with no recollection of who he is or how he got there. The padlocked doors and barren lobby reinforce the strangeness of this place. This is—as he reads from an old-fashioned keychain beside his bed—the Edgewater Hotel. Even worse, something ominous seems to be lurking in one of the rooms. But when he meets a young companion—the only other soul in this vast, enveloping emptiness—his new friend begs him not to unlock the door. There must be something behind it…but what? A haunted hotel on the edge of reality, an endless bridge spanning an infinite ocean, and a man and a boy looking for a way out. This is the setting for a boundary pushing, genre-defying new work of fiction by one of comics’ master storytellers.

This reminded me of my least favourite scene in (a movie I didn‘t particularly enjoy) 2001 : A Space Odyssey

So, the new Lemire OGN, Frogcatchers, came out today. I've purposely avoided all spoilers on this one - to the point that I don't even know the synopsis of it.

All I know is it's Jeff Lemire. That's enough for me!

And now, I finally get to dig in. 😊

Karkar Sounds good! Can‘t wait to see what you think. 5y
