About the series
In the mid-2010s, Finnish publisher Jalava released Bouncer, a five-issue series that follows a hulking, one-armed cowboy and his violent exploits in a gritty Western setting. Created by the legendary Alejandro Jodorowsky with art by François Boucq, this translated European work stands out for its stark, painterly visuals and a mythic, brutal narrative that expands the boundaries of the Western genre. Its limited run makes it a concise, potent entry in Jodorowsky's distinctive oeuvre, offering a self-contained saga of vengeance and survival.
