ENTERTAINMENT WEEKLY Calls TRILLIUM 1 of 5 Comics to Watch at COMICON!

"We’re mere days away from the official launch date of annual pop culture festival Comic-Con. And while we’re all busy buzzing over the movies and TV shows that will soon colonize your Twitter feed, it’s important not to forget the “Comic” part of Comic-Con. The major comics publishers will all be in attendance, showing off teases for upcoming books and new crossovers — here are the five comics we’re excited to learn more about in San Diego..."
5. Trillium
Star-in-the-making writer-artist Jeff Lemire is set to unveil his new creator-owned miniseries, a futuristic adventure billed as “the last love story every told.” Lemire’s work is always strange, emotionally charged, and utterly unique, and Trillium looks like the most fascinating entry in Vertigo’s impressive upcoming slate (which also includes Neil Gaiman’s return to The Sandman.)
See below for an exclusive PREVIEW as well as my COMICON SCHEDULE

It’s the year 3797, and botanist Nika Temsmith is researching a strange species on a remote science station near the outermost rim of colonized space. It’s the year 1921, and renowned English explorer William Pike leads an expedition into the dense jungles of Peru in search of the fabled “Lost Temple of the Incas,” an elusive sanctuary said to have strange healing properties. Two disparate souls separated by thousands of years and hundreds of millions of miles. Yet they will fall in love and, as a result, bring about the end of the universe. Even though reality is unraveling all around them, nothing can pull them apart. This isn’t just a love story; It’s the LAST love story ever told.Trillium is an 8-issue series that combines rich historical adventure and mind-bending science fiction into a sprawling, unconventional love story by Jeff Lemire (SWEET TOOTH, ESSEX COUNTY GREEN ARROW, ANIMAL MAN).This amazing miniseries kicks off with 28-pages of story in a flip-book with two covers and two separate but connected stories!
