1 post | 1 read
The Metabaron character was created by legendary artist Moebius and writer Alejandro Jodorowsky in The Incal, and was later spun-off into his own international bestselling series, The Metabarons, with art by Juan Gimenez. The new series The Metabaron is a collaboration between Alejandro Jodorowsky and Jerry Frissen, exhibiting the work of talented artists including Valentin Secher and Niko Henrichon. Writer/director/ producer David S. Goyer (Man of Steel, Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice) called The Metabarons: "The greatest work of graphic fiction ever produced," and it has sold millions of copies globally.

This is sorta mess…unless you like nihilist techno-gore

The trick is to put techno or meta in front of everything. The human(ish) villains are the technopope, techno-admiral & techno everything else. Is the metabaron a hero? Well, he has no steroid arm protheses so there‘d that. At least he hasn‘t been blinded by the second Gen Golden Planet & had his arms & legs cut off Johnny Got His Gun style.

The series is a big deal among those it suits.
