Gertie Nevals is a tenant farmer in Appalachia during WW2.

I came to know every member of the family intimately, their dreams and fears and disappointments. For Gertie is searching for God, for Christ, and even for Judas. Jul 10, Nicole rated it it was amazing. I might be in that club. First published in , the story centers on Gertie, a strong, capable woman who moves with her husband and children to Detroit so he can work in the war industry. This wiki All wikis. The Dollmaker first appeared in current continuity during the Faces of Death storyline when he visited the Joker in Arkham Asylum.
