Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })Logicomix: An Epic Search for Truth is an award-winning graphic novel written by Apostolos Doxiadis and Christos Papadimitriou, illustrated by Alecos Papadatos and Annie Di Donna, and published in 2009. It's the story of Apostolos and Christos making a comic book about Bertrand Russel, a famous Real Life philosopher and logician, telling the story of his life to a group of isolationist Americans in 1939.Going through from his youth on his grandfather's estate, through his dissatisfaction in college, collaboration on the Principia Mathematica, wooing and breakup with two women, all the way to the lecture, it is a story of the seemingly paradoxical interrelation between logic and insanity and the difference between models and reality.

All There in the Manual: The Useful Notes at the end of the graphic novel provide extra information about the heroes. For example, Allan Turing's (who was referenced at the end of the book) work and death are mentioned in great detail.

Adapted Out: Bertram's older brother (who was the one to introduce him to Euclidean geometry) isn't in the story. The authors were fully aware of this, since in that time, he was in a private school.

Abusive Parents: Bertram's grandma was extremely strict, forbade him to visit certain parts of the house and imposed him rules and religious activities, like reading the Bible. It's no wonder that Bertram ended up atheist and kept things secret from her.
