John Difool, a low-class detective in a degenerate dystopian world, finds his life turned upside down when he discovers an ancient, mystical artifact called The Incal. Difool's adventures will bring him into conflict with the galaxy's greatest warrior, the Metabaron, and will pit him against the awesome powers of the Technopope. These encounters and many more make up a tale of comic and cosmic proportions that has Difool fighting for not only his very survival, but also the survival of the entire universe. Review: Transformation - This is a very 70s era story arc. Androgynous characters, spiritual transitions, crystal starships, and the worship of technology. It's like an early prog rock album come to life. Review: Amazing atmosphere - I had this book in another country and in another time but it was lost in my incessant travels. I had to get it back as well as all the collection related to the Incal and another one about the Metabaron. Now I carry them with me everywhere I go with my Kindle, and love to every now and then that I have a free moment to take a look at those extraordinary stories and amazing drawings done for those two masters. Moebius and Jodorowsky. Amazing stories that will entretain you for a long time and perhaps make you dream.

Transformation
This is a very 70s era story arc. Androgynous characters, spiritual transitions, crystal starships, and the worship of technology. It's like an early prog rock album come to life.

Amazing atmosphere
I had this book in another country and in another time but it was lost in my incessant travels. I had to get it back as well as all the collection related to the Incal and another one about the Metabaron. Now I carry them with me everywhere I go with my Kindle, and love to every now and then that I have a free moment to take a look at those extraordinary stories and amazing drawings done for those two masters. Moebius and Jodorowsky. Amazing stories that will entretain you for a long time and perhaps make you dream.

Continues as it started
The adventure continues for all and some characters we meet along the way, but the fact that each new setting brings with it a completely new set of characters organizations, ideas and cultures, but his hand waved away as “as you know the blah blah blah…. “It starts to feel a bit exhausting. The imagery is beautiful the art and some of the ideas are wonderful, but I wonder if it will ever stop feeling like a surrealist exercise.

Great story
One of the finest made story. The comic medium is perfect for such way of narration constructing. Right proportion of humor and events.

Incredible!
This gem of a book need to be more widely-known. Authors are magicians, as they move you to a another time and place.

ummm what?
Kennedy's tendency to the absurd goes too far here. Strange invented concepts which somehow the characters just know and understand without being mentioned prior run throughout this volume, stretching suspension of disbelief. Not the best.

Jodoverse is a wild place. Wondrous, and wild. Imaginative.
I wouldn't have had the chance to visit these ideas without a number of occurrences that I couldn't have planned.

A true sci-fi classic
The story is solid, characters properly developed, this story arc reveals a character that has its own series and which by the way is cool too.

Cosa c'è Sotto!
Meraviglioso proseguo della storia che si intreccia in modo ulteriore! I personaggi vengono approfonditi e se ne scopre la natura. Inevitabile andare avanti 👍🏻
