The Rise and Fall of the Trigan Empire, Volume IV by Mike Butterworth
Enemies without! Enemies within! This fourth omnibus of The Rise and Fall of the Trigan Empire, a classic of the science-fiction genre, collects the stories published in Look and Learn from 1973 through to 1975. Don Lawrence’s painted art continues to be a highlight of the series and, as Don Lawrence takes a sabbatical from the strip, Miguel Quesada and Philip Corke match his impressive work with their own style. The Trigan emperor and his nephew, Janno, continue to protect their citizens from treacherous politicians, foil assassination attempts by mercenary assassins, halt the despotic plans of delusional scientists, and resist alien invaders.“The Rise and Fall of the Trigan Empire is a stand-out strip on the UK comics’ landscape” Tripwire
“We can still marvel at the extraordinary visual flair and detail of Don Lawrence’s stunning artwork9/10” Starburst
"Vastly influential. Stunning. Dominated the genre of Science-Fiction epics." The Independent
"Lawrence [is] celebrated for his richly coloured, highly detailed visions of fantastic worlds." The New York Times
Don Lawrence was born in 1928, and worked for Mick Anglo on the Marvelman comic produced for Amalgamated Press, and then Billy the Kid in the comic Sun. When Sun was absorbed into Lion he moved on to illustrating Olac the Gladiator, Karl the Viking and Maroc the Mighty. In 1965 he teamed with Mike Butterworth to create The Rise and Fall of the Trigan Empire for Ranger magazine, and continued to paint the comic through its transition into Look and Learn through to 1976. During this period he also worked on Fireball XL5 and The Adventures of Tarzan comic strips for TV Century 21. After leaving The Trigan Empire he worked with a Dutch publisher to create Storm, a post-apocalypse sci-fi series, which he would draw through to his retirement in 1999.
