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 can't 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 he's 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
