Amelia Rules! #3

Oct 2011 · Simon and Schuster · 19.99 USD; 22.99 CAD
“Fireflies and Time”

In "Fireflies and Time," Amelia Rules! #3, Jimmy Gownley delivers a poignant, quietly powerful story that weaves memory, friendship, and resilience. After a moment of crisis, Amelia recalls a fantastical vision of Princess Powerful aiding Princess Trishara, a connection that resurfaces years later when she receives a long-awaited letter from Trishara—her own imagined hero—sharing the final chapter of her life. The issue, written and illustrated entirely by Jimmy Gownley, captures the emotional weight of growing up with a tender, authentic voice, and its cover by Gownley perfectly frames the story’s bittersweet heart.

Amelia hallucinates of Princess Powerful (herself) supporting Princess Trishara in her struggle for life. After Amelia's recovery Trishia takes her leave -- she and her family are moving to California where she will face cardiac surgery. Amelia hears nothing more for years, until she receives by mail a handwritten conclusion to the life of Princess Trishara. When her life is despaired of by all around her Trishara takes up her wand (Trishia takes her pencil) and starts to fight back. She didn't live happily ever after -- no one ever does -- but she lived.
