"The Incal" ist ein wegweisender Science-Fiction-Comic, der von Alexandro Jodorowsky geschrieben und von Moebius (Jean Giraud) illustriert wurde. Die Geschichte folgt John Difool, einem heruntergekommenen Privatdetektiv, der in einer dystopischen Zukunft lebt. Sein Leben nimmt eine dramatische Wendung, als er in den Besitz eines mysteriösen und mächtigen Artefakts namens "Incal" gelangt.
Dieses Artefakt zieht das Interesse verschiedener Fraktionen auf sich, darunter korrupte Regierungen, kriminelle Organisationen und spirituelle Sekten. Widerwillig wird Difool zum Helden wider Willen und muss sich auf eine epische Reise begeben, die ihn durch verschiedene Dimensionen und Bewusstseinsebenen führt.
Die Erzählung ist reich an philosophischen Themen und sozialkritischen Kommentaren. Sie behandelt Fragen nach dem Sinn des Lebens, der Natur des Universums und den Konflikten zwischen Gut und Böse. Mit seiner komplexen Handlung und den atemberaubenden Illustrationen gilt "The Incal" als Meisterwerk des grafischen Erzählens und hat einen bedeutenden Einfluss auf die Entwicklung des Genres gehabt.
Born February 7th, 1929, in Tocopilla, Chile, of a Jewish Ukrainian immigrant family. Jodorowsky was multi-talented from an early age, becoming skilled in puppetry and mime, in addition to writing, by his late teens. He traveled with a pantomime troupe in the 1950s, and within a couple years had made his way to Paris where he collaborated with the world-renowned mime Marcel Marceau. In the 1960s, Jodorowsky ventured further into the world of theater, creating in Mexico, the Panic Movement. This innovative artistic movement allowed him to creatively participate in over a 100 theater productions. The 1970s saw him transition into the world of film where he quickly put a defining stamp on all his cinematic works. He directed several cult films, namely the infamous "El Topo," a Midnight movie favorite. Shortly thereafter, Jodorowsky became attached to direct the adaptation of the famous Frank Herbert sci-fi epic novel "Dune." At the preparation stage of the film, he brilliantly assembled a team of extremely diverse and gifted artists such as HR Giger, Chris Foss, Dan O'Bannon, and Moebius, all of who would later be hired as concept artists on Ridley Scott's "Alien." The development of "Dune" came to a halt due to financial problems, but Jodorowsky, having been exposed to such immense visual talent, propelled himself into writing graphic novels, pairing up with the artist Moebius. This collaboration resulted in what many consider to be one of the most creative European sci-fi graphic novel series of all time, "The Incal," which went on to sell millions of copies worldwide. Since penning "The Incal," Jodorowsky continued writing top selling comic books with a wide variety of Europe's most talented artists, such as "The White Lama" (with Bess), "The Metabarons" (with Gimenez), "The Technopriests" (with Janjetov), and most recently "Bouncer" (with Boucq). Along with nurturing his many other talents, Jodorowsky remains a unique storyteller whose published contributions have secured his status as one of the world's most prolific graphic novel writers.Jean "Mœbius" Giraud was a French artist, cartoonist and writer who worked in the Franco-Belgian bandes dessinées tradition. Giraud garnered worldwide acclaim predominantly under the pseudonym Mœbius and to a lesser extent under the name Gir, which he used for the Blueberry series and his paintings. Mœbius' most famous work was The Incal, written by Alejandro Jodorowsky. He also contributed storyboards and concept designs to numerous science fiction and fantasy films, such as Alien, Tron, The Fifth Element and The Abyss.
