Description

Seasons change and many things occur in the second issue of LeilaMarzocchi's wildly original, beautifully drawn, ecologically minded fable. Savedfrom the threat of a giant centipede by the birds who are taking care of her, our little maggot protagonist "Dolly" goes into hibernation as Winter looms.

While she sleeps, we follow the adventures of the old owl "Grandpa," whodiscovers that he has a superpower. Spring comes, and Doll wakes up, but she has mutated again and is now so hungry that even the best efforts on the birds' partare not sufficient to stave off potential starvation. Only a prophecy from theRow of Rustling Poplars can save her! Meanwhile, the loyal Wingman realizes thatTaxus, the tree he calls home, is no longer answering — what has happened to his spirit?
