Voyageur
The Voyageur is a 74-page graphic novel, illustrated by Nick Marinkovich (KENK, Marvel’s When The Hulk Attacks, Underworld, Nightwolf, Impaler), written and conceived by documentary filmmaker/screenwriter Jeff Sturge (Mayday, Storming Juno, Cold Blood). Compelling characters drive a fast-paced story set in the 17th century that addresses themes of alienation, a young boy’s coming of age and a fish out of water thrust into a strange new world. Marinkovich’s signature ink-rendered, photo-based artwork has been heavily stylized to achieve a haunting look. Every detail of this novel has been accurately recreated from over two years of meticulous research.
I have read through and the story kept my interest to the end … which is interesting because I normally prioritize the art over story and storyline. Saying that I also really enjoyed the art, it’s unique and I like the cinematic style, the dark pen strokes and brooding atmosphere … nice to see that an artist can actually draw, which is often a rare commodity these days in mainstream comics (yes I mean Marvel, DC and Black Horse etc.) … and as I write, draw and paint a bit myself – and have been collecting comics since the 70’s – it’s always refreshing to come across a well illustrated graphic novel! Many thanks for the experience, guys!
