Synopsis

John Difool, a low-class detective in a degenerate dystopian world, finds his life turned upside down when he discovers an ancient, mystical artefact called The Incal. Difool's adventures bring him into conflict with the galaxy's greatest warrior, the Metabaron, and pit him against the awesome powers of the Technopope. These encounters and many more make up a tale of comic and cosmic proportions. Visionary storyteller Jodorowsky's epic mythology and the late Moebius's incredible art blend perfectly for this legendary spiritual space adventure series.

"Whether you believe this or not, this is an important piece of work, historically and artistically, and should be read by all comic fans.
