Grammy-nominated electronic music sensation ILLENIUM is taking his fans on a thrilling ride through the neon-splashed pages of his upcoming graphic novel, Starfall. Collaborating with Z2 Comics, this ambitious project delves into the heart of ILLENIUM’s music, channeling its electric energy into a gripping sci-fi narrative.
In a chilling totalitarian society where survival depends on strength and brutality, we meet Nick, a character entangled in a web of violence and obedience to his ruthless overlords. His lifeline is an addictive elixir called “Substance,” distributed sparingly by his malevolent ruler to maintain control. But the arrival of Ash, a mysterious woman, shatters Nick’s worldview, unveiling a mythology rooted in phoenixes and fire. To escape the dystopia he helped create, Nick must confront his inner demons of addiction and uncover ILLENIUM’s secrets.
ILLENIUM Presents: Starfall is a cooperation of talents, featuring writers Frank Marraffino, artists Pablo Andrés and Luis Expósito Hernández, and cover art by Emilio Adrias. ILLENIUM is excited about this creative endeavor, describing it as a dream come true.
