La storia di Abele e Caino di Alejandro Jodorowsky e Jose Ladronn si chiude con un numero spettacolare in cui i due fratelli tornano ad incrociare le proprie strade. Il volume si apre con il rapporto di assoluta sottomissione di Abele alla bellissima Lilith che gli si concede ma chiedendogli sacrifici incredibili. Dopo aver perso al casinò i preziosi diamanti dell’uomo, Lilith impone ad Abele di strappare il cuore dalla salma della madre per venderlo ed avere ulteriori fiches da giocare al tavolo verde. Ma quando irrompe il Colonello con la sua banda di criminali nel villaggio, Lilith viene sottoposta a terribili sevizie e le vengono tagliate le orecchie, il naso ed i seni. Abele, il buono per definizione, si prenderà cura della donna, che ha perso la sua bellezza, lo splendido involucro di uno spirito avido è stato inesorabilmente compromesso, e andrà con la donna verso l’isola santuario di El Topo dove reincontrerà Caino. Il numero è splendido e chiude l’ennesimo capolavoro immaginifico di Alejandro Jodorowsky.… (més)

Final Incal is a reworking and completion of After the Incal, the twenty-first century sequel to Jodorowsky's mystical space opera bandes dessinées published in the 1980s. While After the Incal had featured art from the original Incal artist Moebius, Final Incal is illustrated by Ladrönn, who credits Moebius' Incal for inspiring him to pursue a career in comics art in the first place. I like Ladrönn's art very well; it has its own style, but the spirit of the characters and places from Moebius is preserved, and there is obvious influence in the compositions.

The central conflict in this story has a malefic intelligence (how do you pronounce "Benthacodon"?) attempt to exterminate all organic life on Earth 2014, "cloning" humans into metal androids, while a lethal virus destroys their old bodies. In typical comic book fashion, the stakes quickly escalate from city-shaft to planet to universe to multiverse. Setting aside the metaphysical backdrop, the villains here reminded me of Doctor Who's Cybermen.

The divine Incal itself is largely concerned to perform matchmaking between John DiFool and Luz de Garra as a way of somehow producing an antidote to the evil plague. For most of the story, Luz is cold to John, which is understandable, since he mostly just whines around her. In his initial quest for her, DiFool is amusingly multiplied with variants from other universes, so that he is analyzed into four characters of base fool, adonis, swami, and angel (92). Jodo's allegory was less than transparent here, and I don't know whether he was referencing cabalistic parts of the soul, Maslow's hierarchy of needs, or something else.

The Final title is misleading, inasmuch as Jodorowsky explicitly said he intended to write further in the Incal setting, and in fact later materials have appeared by him and other other authors. Nor is the narrative particularly closed with the resolution of this book's plot. But it is a good complementary bookend to Before the Incal, building out from the core of the original work.

Update, Dec 28th 2021:

Metabarons are my guilty pleasure. Story so great (especially first volumes with Gimenez as artist) that falls apart for what I can only say is Jodorowsky's constant attempt to shock and awe that results in some of the most childish acts in story that literary .... lets try to be polite, so I will say spits on rest of the story.

So when you read the story and you come across tragedy, loss, pretty weird SF environment and then come the pages of "paleo....techno, arrrgh, arrrgh, blam blam" [fight scenes are so ... jerky.... once Metabaron shows up every body else can just lie down and die for all the good combat against him will bring them] it truly looks like a loss of paper, great artists' talent, and quite a few interesting ideas (that Jodorowsky seems to be ashamed of, because his entire treatment of the story is of a man ashamed of what he likes so he needs to stamp on it for the public to see).

But again, this series is my guilty pleasure - just look at the combat scene where No-Name takes the mantle of Metabaron from his parent, pure beauty. I just imagine pages by Gimenez driving some more ..... sane? consistent? ..... story......

If only this epic series took its epicness in more constructive ways...... one can only dream I guess .....

In any case recommended to fans of the series. For newcomers start from the beginning, this one is side-show story that might ruin things for you.

Original review, Nov 1st 2018:

Been eyeing this own for a while and finally got it.

This is story about Metabaron [as they say the current one, No-Name] and his actions aimed to obtaining his miraculously powerful weapons while fighting off alien invasion on an almost exclusively spiritual plane.

We also get No-Name's story retold again this time in form of memory recovery done by the Sleepers (as always Metabaron story goes x-treme esoteric and entire story line is very much like a dream - veni, vidi, vici). Art in this book is excellent, especially memory flashback part which is in my opinion on-par with Gimenez's work from original series.

Interesting story, great art (especially memory flashbacks).

Recommended to all fans of Metabaron saga (and epic SF of course :) )

After escaping in the previous volume through what might be called [sort of a] wormhole, Metabaron ends up on remote and strange planet where fantastic gravity resisting materiel exists in abundance. Here he comes across mysterious race and their protector, Rina, female Metabaron. To say anything more is to spoil the story but I will just say it remains true to Greek tragedy roots of Metabaron.

Art is excellent as is always case with this series but story it is so rigidly told, in manner of he came, he did this, she said, they said.... I mean this is fantastic setting and series it is incredible that they cant make story flow more naturaly.

On the good side there are no mutilations and sadism and that is great IMHO (third in a row, yes!).

Recommended to fans of Metabaron universe. I hope they tell more vibrant story in follow up volumes.
