Visionary author, filmmaker, and philosopher Alejandro Jodorowsky (The Incal, Metabarons, Jodorowsky's Dune) has created — along with some of the world’s most singular and talented sequential artists — an incredible Sci-Fi universe, full of love, revenge, intrigue, betrayal, and redemption: THE JODOVERSE.

The Jodoverse’s two cornerstone series are The Incal and The Metabarons, which together have sold over 5 million copies worldwide. This deluxe box set (two oversized books in one deluxe slipcase box) will be limited at 1500 numbered copies.

Book 1 contains THE reference guide on The Incal, Deconstructing the Incal, which lifts the veil on many of the mysteries and secrets surrounding the seminal science-fiction graphic novel. This encyclopedic reference book is packed with fascinating insights from the creators, Jodorowsky and Mœbius, alongside revealing text and rare and unseen preliminary illustrations. The book also contains the original 56 pages drawn by Mœbius of the unfinished first version of the sequel story (After The Incal).

Book 2 features the second reference guide to the Jodoverse, Deconstructing the Metabarons, focused on unveiling the secrets of the universe's fiercest warrior clan: the Metabarons. Book 2 also includes Weapons of the Metabaron, the seminal series' spin-off story recounting how the mightiest warrior in the universe built his arsenal of war and featuring A-list comics star Travis Charest's (Wildcats, WildC.A.T.s/X-Men: The Golden Age, and Star Wars comics covers) interpretation of The Metabarons' mythology.
