Happy Birthday Mœbius!
More than three years have passed since we lost Jean Giraud aka Mœbius. Giraud would have been 77 years old as of May 8, 2015. Humanoids wishes to pay tribute to the author and genius who was one of the founding fathers of Métal Hurlant and Les Humanoïdes Associés.
Final Incal - The Swan-song to the Incal series
Story by Alexandro Jodorowsky, Art by Ladrönn & Mœbius
Lowly class ‘R’ detective John Difool and his faithful companion, Deepo, are unwillingly hurled into yet another universe-saving mission, as their world is faced with the threat of an all-devouring metallic virus. Visionary storyteller Jodorowsky returns to the epic mythology he created with the late Mœbius in the early 80s. John DiFool travels on an epic journey, both spiritually and physically as he attempts to save the world of Terra 2014 one last time. For the conclusion of the legendary spiritual space adventure series, he partners with Eisner-winning artist Ladrönn ("Cable," "Hip Flask," "Elephantmen").
Quicks facts about Final Incal:
• Available in two distinct formats. An Oversized deluxe edition exactly like The Incal & Before The Incal were both released as. The 2nd is a Ultra Deluxe Coffee Table Edition (12 x 16 inches) which includes a signed book plate by Ladrönn & Jodorowsky, and three loose prints designed by Ladrönn, and limited to ONLY 200 copies.
