Description
Kicking off 2026 with an original page from The Saga of the Meta‑Barons by Alejandro Jodorowsky and Juan Giménez. From the moment the series was released, I was captivated by Giménez’s sheer graphic power and extraordinary visual sophistication.

Set within The Incal universe, The Metabarons is a generational epic driven by ritual, power, and inheritance—where each successor must ultimately confront and kill his father. Visually, every page is a statement, and for me Giménez stands among the true masters of comic art.

This page comes from Volume 3, Aghnar le Bisaïeul (Aghnar the Great‑Grandfather, 1995), and depicts the climactic confrontation between Othon and Aghnar—a pivotal narrative moment in the saga. As usual the scan doesn’t quite do justice to the richness of the colors or the incredible level of detail!

The gun comes out right at us and that's without 3-D glasses!

Wow! Detail and texture of guns and other weapons and the breaking of the panels makes it three-dimensional. Ink wash and the faces are fabulous.

Thanks Peter! Usually his work is more appreciated in Europe than US
