Alejandro Jodorowsky 90e anniversaire #9

The ninth volume in Les Humanoïdes Associés' anniversary celebration of Alejandro Jodorowsky's work, created in collaboration with Bess and Boiscommun, presents a striking triptych that captures the breadth and strangeness of his storytelling universe. Three distinct panels showcase a gun-wielding man cradling an infant beside a coffin, a sharp-featured figure in formal black attire striding forward with red boxing gloves and a knife while a white dove takes flight above him, and a bearded, robed figure seated solemnly amid scattered candles wearing an elaborate horned crown. Together these images make a compelling case for why Jodorowsky's comics collaborations remain some of the most visually and thematically daring work French-language comics have to offer.
