The must-read spin-off of best selling sci-fi masterpiece The Incal
follows the adventures of The Metabaron. This volume collects the
entire Second Cycle of The Metabarons in one paperback edition.
Collects all four volumes of The Metabaron for the first time. We
first met the Metabaron in the pages of The Incal, but their story
is so much bigger than their moments with John Difool... The
Metabarons chronicles the fascinating dynasty of the ultimate
warrior. This collection introduces the history of the Metabarons
and reveals the origins of their deep-seated principles, their vast
wealth, their cybernetic implants, and their most brutal custom:
that the only way for a son to become the next Metabaron is to slay
his own father in mortal combat. Follow generations of Metabarons
as they struggle to overcome the forces amassed against them in a
galaxy corrupted by greed, power, and terror.

The 18th century. In a monastery in the North of Spain hides the
sacred temple of the Knights of Heliopolis: an assembly of immortal
alchemists cut off from the world. As disciple Seventeen prepares
to complete his training and integrate order, his master Fulcanelli
reveals to the other knights the terrible secret of his origins -
Seventeen is actually the hidden son of King Louis XVI and
Marie-Antoinette! Will the young heir claim the throne or remain in
the shadows, faithful to the millennial precepts of Alchemy? Based
on one of the greatest myths in the history of France, a romantic
destiny that acclaimed writer Jodorowsky brilliantly rewrites as a
grand esoteric fable.

Filmmaker Alejandro Jodorowsky's insights into the Tarot as a
spiritual path
- Works with the original Marseille Tarot to reveal the roots of
Western wisdom
- Provides the key to the symbolic language of the Tarot's "nomadic
cathedral"
- Transforms a simple divination tool into a vehicle for
self-realization and healing
Alejandro Jodorowsky's profound study of the Tarot, which began in
the early 1950s, reveals it to be far more than a simple divination
device. The Tarot is first and foremost a powerful instrument of
self-knowledge and a representation of the structure of the soul.
"The Way of Tarot" shows that the entire deck is structured like a
temple, or a mandala, which is both an image of the world and a
representation of the divine. The authors use the sacred art of the
original Marseille Tarot--created during a time of religious
tolerance in the 11th century--to reconnect with the roots of the
Tarot's Western esoteric wisdom. They explain that the Tarot is a
"nomadic cathedral" whose parts--the 78 cards or "arcana"--should
always be viewed with an awareness of the whole structure. This
understanding is essential to fully grasp the Tarot's hermetic
symbolism.
The authors explore the secret associations behind the hierarchy of
the cards and the correspondences between the suits and energies
within human beings. Each description of the Major Arcana includes
key word summaries, symbolic meanings, traditional interpretations,
and a section where the card speaks for itself. Jodorowsky and
Costa then take the art of reading the Tarot to a depth never
before possible. Using their work with Tarology, a new
psychological approach that uses the symbolism and optical language
of the Tarot to create a mirror image of the personality, they
offer a powerful tool for self-realization, creativity, and
healing.
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.

Jodorowsky (The Incal, Metabarons, Jodorowsky's Dune). Alan Mangel
has it all. As a popular professor at the world-famous Universite
de La Sorbonne, he is wealthy, married, and academically acclaimed.
On his sixtieth birthday, however, his life crumbles as a beautiful
young student claims she has received a holy vision that Mangel is
to impregnate her with the second coming of John the Baptist. Thus
begins a wild existential and spiritual journey that challenges
Mangel's very reality when everything once true is proved to be

Georges Bess: the Tibetan-set mystical adventure of treachery,
martial arts, and spiritual redemption, THE WHITE LAMA; and THE
MAGICAL TWINS, the epic quest of a young prince and princess to
rescue their father and save the kingdom.
Known for his surrealist films, his unique approach to tarot, his
symbolic comics, and his shamanic therapeutic method of
psychomagic, Alejandro Jodorowsky has accomplished an extraordinary
amount in his more than 80 years. In this book, we get an intimate
look into the inner workings of the cult figure of Jodo. What is
revealed is a man who has evolved since his groundbreaking films of
the 1970s, El Topo and The Holy Mountain, a man who has grown from
a sacred trickster, a shaman of psychomagic, into a brilliant
spiritual maverick of the 21st century. We get to see Jodo's own
reflections on his remarkable life, including the initiatory
failure of the Dune film project, which combined the talents of a
multitude of creative greats, including Moebius, Salvador Dali,
Orson Welles, Mick Jagger, and H. R. Giger. We learn about Jodo's
years with Marcel Marceau and with great masters such as Ejo
Takata, whose Zen training featured strenuous physical and mental
ordeals; the sorceress Pachita, who performed psychic surgery on
Jodo; and the mysterious Carlos Castaneda. From sacred trickery to
the path of kindness, Jodo's radical wisdom discerns the timeless
within the immediate and gauges the everyday by the measure of
eternity.
This encyclopedic reference book is packed with fascinating
insights from the Metabaron's original creators, Jodorowsky and
Moebius, alongside revealing text, and rare and unseen preliminary
illustrations from Juan Gimenez. Discover the complexities of the
Metabarons' sacred bloodline, travelling all the way their
inception, through the tales of the intricacies of the expanded
Universe and into the recent relaunch, The Metabaron.
