One Million Tiny Fires includes many staples of the horror genre, a couple growing apart from each other, an isolated farmhouse, a growing sense that something strange is occurring, yet its resolution glows with uniqueness. The atmospheric cover of the comic is what originally captured my interest, so I was thrilled that this quality was present throughout the inner illustrations. Franklin has a honed skill for intimate, emotional storytelling with a paranormal hook. As a result, this comic was engaging with a fleshed out tone early on, and retained excellent pacing and sharply memorable images until the final panel. I highly recommend it to others interested in queer horror stories.
