    Sturge, Jeff

    Marinkovich, Nick

    Abstract

    The Voyageur is a 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.
