From the Publisher
The Highest Selling Sci-Fi Graphic Novel of All Time
Experience the entire Incal saga stemming from Alejandro Jodorowsky & Mลbius’ defining psychedelic blockbuster. Discover John Difool’s entire journey in Before the Incal, After the Incal, Final Incal, and Deconstructing The Incal. Then dive into the brutal sci-fi domination of The Metabarons.
Mลbius’ Masterwork
Mลbius, born Jean Giraud, has inspired thousands on a global scale with his intricate, exotic art, filled with strange and whimsical characters and sprawling worlds. A co-founder of Les Humanoรฏdes Associรฉs, Mลbius created such masterpieces as The Airtight Garage, Arzach, and Silver Surfer: Parable with Stan Lee. The Incal is an apex of his talents, weaving together a dystopian sci-fi ecosystem around white-knuckle action.
The Introduction of The Metabarons
More than a decade before Alejandro Jodorowsky and Juan Gimรฉnez would release the first volume of The Metabarons, The Incal introduced No Nameโthe last of an elusive clan of dangerous, cunning galactic warriors. This is our first glimpse of an near-unkillable bounty hunter who would go on to spawn seven core volumes of brutal sci-fi innovation.
A Mind-Blowing Story from Film Icon Jodorowsky
Alejandro Jodorowsky has continually pushed the boundaries of whatever medium he approached. From his meditative visual poetry in films including El Topo and The Holy Mountain to his evocative poetry and Tarot explorations, each experience has given him a new canvas to expand consciousness. That heady introspection and experimentation merge seamlessly with Mลbius’ sprawling art in The Incal. The resulting tome takes readers not only through a high-octane journey through the galaxy, but also into the metaphysical hopes, fears, and sins of John DiFool and those around him.
