L'Incal

In the sprawling, psychedelic universe of L'Incal, writer Alexandro Jodorowsky and artist Moebius crafted a foundational work of French science fiction for Les Humanoïdes Associés. Running from 1981 to 1988 across six issues, the series follows the cosmic misadventures of low-class detective John Difool, whose discovery of a mysterious artifact—the Incal—plunges him into a conflict spanning the entire galaxy. This landmark series is essential for its visionary fusion of esoteric philosophy, surreal imagery, and sprawling space opera, setting a new standard for the graphic novel medium.
