Trillium

Creator:  Jeff Lemire

First Publication:  2014

Graphic Novel Challenge book #20

Trillium is an interesting combination of many different types of stories. 

First off, I found the art to be reminiscent of the classic science fiction comics published by EC.  In addition to the art, the story brought back fond memories of the tales that appeared in Weird Science.  

Fans of Indiana Jones will like the jungle adventure story that takes place in the past. Science fiction fans will prefer the story in the future. It focuses on a scientist's interaction with an alien species.  At the same time he also builds the story around a romance between the two main characters.

Jeff Lemire utilizes an interesting technique to leave stories together.

I recommend this book to people who are looking for something different than the usual superhero stories to read.
