Loosely based on the Dust Bowl of the 1930's, this graphic novel adds an element of mysticism to the bleak world of that time. Jack discovers a dark entity in an abandoned barn, and figures out that it holds the secret to the area's lack of rain. The illustrations are wispy and lacking in detail. Words are sparse, and the story depends a great deal on the illustrations which are sometimes hard to make out.
The movie was in many ways better. Which for many is not saying a whole heckuva lot.
