Art by JM Ken Niimura
I continue to love this book. In this issue, we start to figure out what's going on with Barbara's family, as both Sophia and Mrs. Molle make efforts to reach out to Barbara. We also start to see that Barbara might be a lot more disturbed than we originally thought (what all is that in her garbage bag?).
The story resists the impulse to sink into psycho-babble though, and the final few pages make us wonder if maybe Barbara hasn't been right all along.
Niimura's artwork is perfect for this story. The atmosphere that he creates helps push along the feeling of doom that I got from this book. I love the way he draws the sky.
