Now a common tool and object of study, stacks were introduced in
this book as a framework for the study of non-abelian cohomology
classes in degrees 1 and 2 on an arbitrary topos. The book shows
that these cohomology classes can be represented by geometric
objects called torsors and gerbes, and provides a detailed study of
their basic properties. Since their introduction in this book,
gerbes have become a widespread tool in geometry and topology. A
timeless classic, this French language book remains to this day a
key reference for fibred categories, stacks, torsors, gerbes and
topos.

Visionary author, filmmaker, and philosopher Alejandro Jodorowsky
(The Incal, Metabarons, Jodorowsky's Dune) has created - along with
some of the world's most singular and talented sequential artists -
an incredible Sci-Fi universe, full of love, revenge, intrigue,
betrayal, and redemption: THE JODOVERSE. The Jodoverse's two
cornerstone series are The Incal and The Metabarons, which together
have sold over 5 million copies worldwide. This deluxe box set (two
oversized books in one deluxe slipcase box) will be limited at 1500
numbered copies. Book 1 contains THE reference guide on The Incal,
Deconstructing the Incal, which lifts the veil on many of the
mysteries and secrets surrounding the seminal science-fiction
graphic novel. This encyclopedic reference book is packed with
fascinating insights from the creators, Jodorowsky and Moebius,
alongside revealing text and rare and unseen preliminary
illustrations. The book also contains the original 56 pages drawn
by Moebius of the unfinished first version of the sequel story
(After The Incal). Book 2 features the second reference guide to
the Jodoverse, Deconstructing the Metabarons, focused on unveiling
the secrets of the universe's fiercest warrior clan: the
Metabarons. Book 2 also includes Weapons of the Metabaron, the
seminal series' spin-off story recounting how the mightiest warrior
in the universe built his arsenal of war and featuring A-list
comics star Travis Charest's (Wildcats, WildC.A.T.s/X-Men: The
Golden Age, and Star Wars comics covers) interpretation of The
Metabarons' mythology.
