By Jennifer Marie Lin on Apr 11th, 2019 (Last Updated Jun 9th, 2020) Trillium, his time-twisting science-fiction romance from a few years back, is one such project, and it rises above many of his other work. He’s had some misfires, true, but when Lemire sits down with a passion project, you can bet it will at least be interesting. He writes superhero comics, true, but none of them approach the majesty he brings to his gritty, “slice-of-life” comics that he writes and draws, where his true passion lies. Essex County is a masterpiece, a shocking comic for someone so young, and Lemire has continued with the high quality of much of his solo work since. Jeff Lemire has been a force in comics for about a decade, ever since Essex Country first appeared (it wasn’t his first comic, but it was pretty close).

Malcolm is now under Elena’s control, as part of the most difficult decision she’s had to make as leader. It’s about not letting anyone think they can do this to werewolves and get away with it.īut Elena is also dealing with the Pack’s homegrown monster-Malcolm Danvers, onetime enforcer, full-time psycho. When young Davis Cain comes to the Pack for help, Alpha Elena Michaels can’t refuse him. But not even the Cains deserve to be hunted down and skinned like animals. The mutt clan embodies all the supernatural world’s worst stereotypes about werewolves. Publisher’s Description: Cains are known for being big, brutish and not-too-bright.
