Review 2014 EISNER AWARD NOMINEE FOR BEST LIMITED SERIES This book represents a challenge to other creators: the bar for creativity in comics continues to be raised.-Publishers Weekly Starred Review “For writer/artist Jeff Lemire, his new Vertigo series TRILLIUM isn’t just an exercise in stretching his sci-fi muscles; it’s an exercise in stretching the boundaries of his creativity and artistic talent.- Nerdist When you get to the last page of TRILLIUM, you cant help but think wow. This is an exciting and original work that deserves your attention and your dollars. Buy TRILLIUM. -IGN “TRILLIUM is a confident, unique debut that exemplifies why Lemire has become one of DC’s top creators, but he remains at his best when he’s doing his own thing away from superheroes.”- A.V. Club/The Onion Once again Lemire shows why hes a master storyteller. Trillium is exciting, visceral and cerebral at the same time.- CraveOnline “If Lemire has adopted the quicker pacing of his recent works, he still knows when to pan the camera back and let his layouts project the vivid imagination bustling inside of him. And that’s what makes TRILLIUM such a special work: this is a piece of an artist pulled from a deep place nobody’s ever seen before. And for Lemire to share that, all we can say is thank you.”- Paste Magazine Lovely and terribly enjoyable. -Comic Book Resources This is sci-fi at its finest, an amalgam of everything we love-time travel, space, alien races and of course the most important element of how humans process these stirring events.- Aint It Cool News About the Author Award-winning Canadian cartoonist Jeff Lemire is the creator of the acclaimed monthly comic book series SWEET TOOTH published by DC/Vertigo and the award winning graphic novel ESSEX COUNTY published by Top Shelf.
