Synopsis "Technopriests"

The cosmic adventures of a young boy on his path to ridding the galaxy of an insidious technological plague. From legendary creator Alejandro Jodorowsky (The Incal, Metabarons, Jodorwsky's Dune). After the Greek tragedy of "The Metabarons," Alexandro Jodorowsky returns to his biblical roots with this quest reminiscent of the story of Moses and set on a galactic scale. Its characters and the theme of virtual reality are tailor-made for artist Zoran Janjetov ("Before The Incal"), who finds in Jodorowsky a perfect collaborator. Albino, hero of this space odyssey, remembers here his childhood, his apprenticeship, and the big and small battles he had to fight to fulfill his ambitions in a universe where technological advances are paradoxically matched only by the cruelty and the barbarism of the forces controlling it. This beloved saga off-shoot of The Incal is back in print! (The Incal will soon be a major motion picture from Academy Award- Winning director Taika Waititi) Contains new cover gallery Gorgeous Hardcover design is the ultimate way to read Technopriests.
