I've only read the first four, is the rest of the series as good? I'm always hesitant when a different writer picks up a story, especially from someone as singular as Jodorowsky.
And you are absolutely right about that in this case, because the classic series are by far the best the Jodoverse has to offer. I recommend to check out (if you did not do that yet):
The Incal
Before The Incal
The Saga of the Metabarons
The Technopriests
The rest (After The Incal, Final Incal, Castaka, The Metabaron, Megalex and especially Simak) all look great but do not come even close to the quality of the storytelling of the original series imo.
I haven't tried Saga or Technopriests yet
In that case I recommend reading Saga first, then Technopriests.
