In that case I recommend reading Saga first, then Technopriests.

When Moebius is missing, it often gets too one sided imo. Jodo´s restless brutality and Giraud´s calm tenderness were a match made in heaven! They are like Ying and Yang, which makes their collaborations so rich in contrast and interesting.

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.

Great! I hope you will feel at home and meet some cool people soon.

Yes the term fits really well. In German its a common thing to call big cities a "Moloch".

Moloch, huh? Like… the ancient Cannonite diety? :o

Yes, exactly! Is calling a large city -which endlessly sucks in resources as well as humans- a "Moloch", not a thing in English?

I wish she would do a little housework from time to time but I think that will never happen, she does not even wash her own dishes yet. This is her in her natural state:

Thanks for asking, Astrid is doing really well now and I am also on a pretty good track myself, calm and peace have returned to our lives!

How are you doing these days, Mîm?

Moved to feddit.de from lemmy.world because it´s so slow that it´s unusable. I wanted to have the same subscriptions as before but when searching:

Anti consumption does not show up as a search result.

Someone please let me know what my mistake is.
