The twenty-third comic: #437 The Incal
I'm not really sure where to go when describing the Incal. Sure, it's partially a drama comic, partially a sci-fi action strip, partially something more esoteric. It's a bit unfocused, a storyline that meanders a bit sometimes and that I'm not sure necessarily has a focus. It sounds like a consequence of the writing process, mostly done on the spur of the moment. The writer - film director Alejandro Jodorowsky - wrote by dictating to the artist, who interpreted it, dropped or changed phrases to suit the art.
It makes for a very art driven comic, and while the overall story makes sense, there are some sections that clearly go more for creating interesting images instead. The visual storytellng works, drawing you into the alien world where some sort of magic is real and strange things happen. It's an amazing read with some oddities in there.
