Jeff Lemire's new graphic novel Frogcatchers is a 'meditation on getting old, memory and childhood'

Jeff Lemire's new graphic novel Frogcatchers is an intimate, personal and surreal story — but it comes at a time when the award-winning cartoonist's profile is rising.
Lemire has about 10 screen adaptations of his work in development, including a CBC TV adaptation of his book Essex County and a screen adaptation of his superhero comic book series Black Hammer.
