Humanoids has announced three new titles set in the Incal universe: The Incal: Psychoverse, by Mark Russell and Yanick Paquette; The Incal: Dying Star, by Dan Watters and Jon Davis-Hunt; and The Incal: Kill Wolfhead, by Brandon Thomas and Pete Woods.
The Incal: Psychoverse will be published on November 15 as a 120-page hardcover with an MSRP of $24.99. Details on the other two books is not yet available.
The original Incal saga, a collaboration between Jodorowsky and Jean Giraud (a.k.a. Moebius), followed the adventures of John Difool, a human in a dystopian future world who discovers a powerful ancient artifact, the Incal, that propels him into a series of cosmic adventures. Humanoids has published The Incal in several formats, including deluxe hardcovers and a single paperback volume (see “Softcover ‘Incal’ Collection”). Writer and director Taika Waititi is working on a film adaptation (see “Taika Waititi on ‘The Incal’”).
“Four decades after its publication, the world of The Incal remains a shock to the system and a transcendent work,” said Humanoids CEO Fabrice Giger in a statement accompanying the announcement. “This new Incal Universe project, to which Alejandro Jodorowsky has given his blessing, will open the door for a new generation of readers to discover all new adventures featuring John Difool, the Metabaron, Kill Wolfhead, and the Incal.”
