The Incal (repost)

The Incal (French: L'Incal) is a French graphic novel series written by Alejandro Jodorowsky and originally illustrated by Jean Giraud. The Incal, with first pages originally released as Une aventure de John Difool ("A John Difool Adventure") in Métal hurlant and published by Les Humanoïdes Associés, introduced Jodorowsky's "Jodoverse" (or "Metabarons Universe"), a fictional universe in which his science fiction comics take place. It is an epic space opera blending fantastical intergalactic voyage, science, technology, political intrigues, conspiracies, messianism, mysticism, poetry, debauchery and satire. The Incal includes and expands the concepts and artwork from the abandoned film project Dune directed by Jodorowksy and designed by Giraud from the early 1970s.

Originally published in installments between 1981 and 1988, and followed by Before the Incal (1988–1995, with Zoran Janjetov), After the Incal (2000, with Jean Giraud), and Final Incal (2008–2014, with José Ladrönn) has been described as a contender for "the best comic book" in the medium's history. From it spin-off related series Metabarons, The Technopriests, and Mégalex.

As further clues to her role, identity, and destiny are revealed to her, the powers that be ramp up their efforts to capture her. 

A spectacular and riveting space opera by the creator of Leo Roa and the illustrator of The Metabarons saga. The Fourth Power. A powerful cocktail of science fiction, humor, and social criticism written and drawn by the artist of The Metabarons: Juan Gimenez!

Megalex (repost)

Megalex city is an industrial perfection. It has spread almost all over the planet, destroying everything that is natural, random, abnormal. Megalex works correctly, with the perfection of the artificial. Police are cloned so that they are all the same, perfect, and can fight for Megalex during his four days of life. This is a happy world, as would Aldous Huxley. There are still some pockets of Nature, primarily Forest Chem, a conscious jungle trying to sabotage the unstoppable advance of Megalex, while waiting to Geomesías. In this world must survive a police clone cloned defectively the size of a giant. Only the love they feel Zerain and Kavatah can end this spiral of hatred and destruction. Created by Alejandro Jodorowsky and Fred Beltran.

On Megalex, a gigantic planet-industrial city, every nature is banished. It Man and woman reproduces by cloning itself, people are preprogrammed from birth until death, regimented in classes with unequal privileges. The most spectacular life. The police only has live in 400 days, for citezen they are 40 years, but for the queen 4000 years. Everything would be fine in the Brave New World if only a few remaining ‘anomalies’: a forest irreducible and aggressive, rebels buried and, from time to time, there always a malfunction in the system.

Screaming Planet (repost)

A collection of Sci-Fi short stories all written by Alejandro Jodorowsky ("The Incal", "The Metabarons") and illustrated by talent from various countries and different graphic traditions. The thematic thread of these tales: an asteroid spawned from the destruction of a planet produces sounds (a "howling shriek") which, when crossing an inhabited world, creates a change or imbalance within it.

Screaming Planet collects eleven of Jodorowsky's stories all sharing a creative thematic core, but transpiring within different times, places, and dimensions. To achieve such a diverse presentation, Jodorowsky employs a medley of artists on each strip.

Grosz (2017) 

This is a series of short nearly wordless comics, arranged chronologically, that form a biography of the caricaturist best known for his visualization of the Weimar Republic. George Grosz (1893–1959) was a German fine artist, cartoonist, and teacher who drew from pop culture, was active in the Dada and New Objectivist movements, and was an influence for artists like Ben Shahn. (His antiwar painting, Eclipse from the Sun, would inspire Vietnam protesters.) In this graphic biography, written and drawn by Fiske, angular art lays Kandinsky-like lines over scenes set in anything-goes, post–World War I Berlin: connecting, emphasizing, tracing movement. Curves evoke the fleshy sex of Grosz’s work. (Fiske channels the exuberance and fascination with line that typified Grosz’s work, and more generally early to mid-century art movements.) Symbolically, Fiske uses two colors―red for Berlin, a slash of Grosz’s lipstick, a flash of tie―and green for the jazz and trains of New York, where Grosz would flee from Nazi Germany.

Jona is about to move away; he calls his wife, who’s already settled in Berlin, before trying to make plans with friends for one last night on the town. No one bites―they’re all busy or maybe they just don’t want to party―but he’s determined to make this night something to remember. Victoria is lively and energetic, but surrounded by friends and family who are buzzkills, always worrying about what is best for her. Rodolphe glumly considers his own misery and then suddenly snaps out of it, becoming the life of the party. The three careen through the city’s nightlife spots and underbelly, getting ever deeper in the messiness of human existence as they chase pleasure―or at least a few distractions from their daily lives. Each has a series of misadventures that reveal them to be teetering on the edge of despair, of destruction, of becoming the people they’ll be for the rest of their lives. The City of Belgium occupies a place between lucid dream and tooth-grinding nightmare. by Brecht Evens  (Author)
