Based on a character created by Moebius and Jodorowsky, Metabarons is an action adventure set in the far flung future. A story that follows the continuing saga of a line of super-human warriors and the many trials they face.

With lavish full color painted illustrations printed on high quality glossy paper.

An acclaimed French series of graphic novels finally makes its appearance on American soil. Alexandro Jodorowsky and Juan Gimeniz’s epic now appears in the U.S., remastered in a brand new comic book.

This tale, lavishly elaborated from a minor story by French comics legend Moebius (Blueberry, Silver Surfer), tells of a mysterious family of laborers who guard a great secret, one that allows them to perform their jobs as simple marble cutters with an almost magical ease. But a near-tragic mishap forces to reveal their secret. And once revealed, it throws the galaxy into civil war. From this war rises the half-man half-bionic Metabaron, a cold killer who passes on his family tradition in the most startling and chilling of manners. Writer Alexandro Jodorowsky (Incal) and artist Juan Gimenez take the Moebius concept to wondrous extremes in this exciting and majestic series.


This series was created by comic legend, Moebius and Alexandro Jodorowsky (acclaimed director of El Topo).
