John Difool, a low-class detective in a degenerate dystopian world, finds his life turned upside down when he discovers an ancient, mystical artifact called "The Incal." Difool’s adventures will bring him into conflict with the galaxy’s greatest warrior, the Metabaron, and will pit him against the awesome powers of the Technopope. These encounters and many more make up a tale of comic and cosmic proportions that has Difool fighting for not only his very survival, but also the survival of the entire universe. Review: Fantastic. - I got this after seeing the documentary on the Dune Jodorowski would have made and I was very interested in the story he wanted to bring to the screen and after seeing this, I know my interest was not misplaced. The book suffers from a small amount of Deus Ex Machina and happy coincidence, a little forced drama and urgency, but overwhelmingly it is unique, beautifully drawn, well-executed and a great read. Those are minor gripes in the realm of graphic novels, really. The first 50 pages didn't draw me in well but once Jodorowski hit his stride as a storyteller in this medium the book takes off and becomes phenomenal. It's got a blend of almost everything as far as genres go, has interesting viewpoints and a great overall story arc. It has compelled me to get the next book in the series, eventually. If money wasn't tight I would have gotten the second one already. I spent an hour sniffing the pages and looking at the artwork when I first got this, the publishing is VERY quality for the price. Built in bookmark just adds extra value and makes keeping track of your place so simple. If you're a fan of Jodorowski, Moebius or good graphic novels, sci-fi adventures or intellectual, philosophical discourse hidden in a good story, you should get this. You can miss out if you want, but it's totally worth the price to hold this and read it. Review: Just….yes - I have many copies of the old heavy-metal magazine, but I don’t have the complete story of the Incal. here it is, in all its glory. I love the art, and I finally get to see how the story completely unfolds. The print is gorgeous, and it is a wonderful way to spend an evening or two discovering a new story (if you are new to this) or rediscovering, and — as I have — finally, seeing the full story. At some future point, I will get some of the other books by Jodorowsky, and I’ll let you know what I think about them when I get to it 😉 ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Best Sellers Rank | #32,762 in Books ( See Top 100 in Books ) #15 in Dystopian Graphic Novels #22 in Historical & Biographical Fiction Graphic Novels #32 in Graphic Novel Adaptations | | Customer Reviews | 4.7 out of 5 stars 2,048 Reviews | ## Images ![The Incal - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71X2q8KTidL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Fantastic. *by T***E on November 29, 2015* I got this after seeing the documentary on the Dune Jodorowski would have made and I was very interested in the story he wanted to bring to the screen and after seeing this, I know my interest was not misplaced.

It is an incredible example of ninth art, an adult comic (or graphic novel) that blends fantasy, violence, and politics. Jodorowsky's story is crazy. It meanders through a lot of strange scenarios. I don't have as much time to read as I would like, and had to read this in small installments. Every time I picked it up I was lost as to the storyline. I found myself backtracking several pages to recall what was going on. I will definitely need to reread to get the full scope. I thought the story got stronger toward the end, which reminded me of a Twilight Zone ending. The artwork is great. Moebius (Jean Giraud) is considered one of France's greatest illustrators, and now I know why. I haven't seen much of his work before this, as most of the english versions of his books are out of print. The art is detailed in it's execution. The inking doesn't have the hatching or shading techniques I am used to in American comics. People talk about how great Ditko's Doctor Strange art is, well Moebius' art at the end of the Incal is insane! --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.at/products/21196714-the-incal](https://www.desertcart.at/products/21196714-the-incal) --- *Product available on Desertcart Austria* *Store origin: AT* *Last updated: 2026-06-08*
