Titan Comics and Statix Press Announce "Factory"
Arriving March 2018, Factory is part of Titan Comics’ new Statix Press imprint, which showcases the best comics from Europe and around the globe, introducing audiences to fresh new creators & titles.
In the new Factory comic series, Mad Max meets Fallout in a nightmarish vision of life on a dystopian planet. A band of mutants slog through the harsh deserts of a dystopian planet in search of The Factory - the last semblance of civilization left among the wasteland.
Factory #1 will come with a spectacular cover by renowned artist Simon Bisley (Lobo, Doom Patrol, 13 Coins).
"The first time I was published in the USA was in the magazine Heavy Metal. I was 22 years old... Years later and after working on movies and TV shows in Los Angeles I briefly worked for Marvel and IDW," said series creator Elgo, "However, my French albums have never been translated into English. Today I am excited and happy to have the opportunity to be read by a wider audience thanks to Titan Comics. I hope that people will see something artistically attractive or interesting in the spirit of my mentor Jean Moebius Giraud."
"As a lifelong fan of Moebius, who was already familiar with Yacine's work, it's a privilege to finally bring Factory to the US market," said Statix Press brand manager Chris Thompson, "At Statix Press we try to team international creators with artists that readers are already familiar with, which is why Simon Bisley was a no-brainer for this first issue cover. His stunning art complements Elgo's, and gives fans an idea of what to expect from the series."
Factory Issue #1 is available to order now from Diamond’s current January edition of Diamond Previews Catalogue.

Humanoids Offers a Sample of the Comics of Alejandro Jodorowsky
Rediscovering Jodorowsky
Universe. Multiverse. Jodoverse
Los Angeles, CA: Hot on the heels of a successful premiere of his latest autobiographical film, Endless Poetry, at Cannes Film Festival, and the English release of his novel: Albina and the Dog-Men, Alexandro Jodorowsky’s most prolific medium, his graphic novels, are now even more accessible with a trade paperback compilation of key titles in his “Jodoverse” at a very affordable $4.99/£3.50.
Visionary author, filmmaker, and philosopher, Alexandro Jodorowsky (El Topo, Dance of Reality) has created an incredible Sci-Fi universe, full of love, revenge, intrigue, betrayal, and redemption, along with some of the world’s most singular and talented sequential artists, including Mœbius, Juan Giménez, Zoran Janjetov, and Fred Beltran. Told one series at a time, this wholly imaginative realm continues to expand on a cosmic scale. Humanoids Presents: The Jodoverse features excerpts from The Incal, The Metabarons, The Technopriests, and Megalex, a 112-page collection that provides a peek into this mind-blowing world that will ensure that you’ll want to hop onboard and explore it further.
There will be limited copies of Humanoids Presents: The Jodoverse (ISBN: 978-1-59465-167-0) available at the Humanoids booth (1632) at San Diego Comic Con (21-24 July 2016) followed by a general release to book and comic stores in September 2016.

Humanoids Announces "Moebius May" Art Print at San Diego Comic Con 2016
Incal Print to Debut at SDCC
Humanoids, publisher of the international bestselling Incal series, and renowned poster designer Mondo announce new Moebius inspired print available at San Diego Comic Con.
Los Angeles, CA – As part of their Moebius May celebrations, Humanoids reveals work-in-progress artwork from an upcoming Moebius-inspired print based on the worldwide bestselling graphic novel The Incal, created by Alexandro Jodorowsky and Moebius. The print will be available from Mondo at this year’s San Diego Comic Con, July 21-24, 2016.
Jean Giraud aka Moebius was born on May 8, 1938 and was one of the co-founders of Humanoids (Les Humanoïdes Associés). The multiple Eisner and Harvey award winner has been cited as an influence by filmmakers such as Ridley Scott and Hayao Miyazaki, as well as by artists the world over. The concept artist behind ground-breaking films like Alien, TRON and The Abyss, as well as a concept designer on The Fifth Element, is even more acknowledged for his works in comics and graphic novels, including: Arzach, The Eyes of the Cat, and the The Incal, among many others.
Inducted into the Jack Kirby Hall of Fame, Will Eisner Award Hall of Fame and the Science Fiction Hall of Fame amongst a lengthy list of international awards, Jean Giraud passed away in 2012, but his legacy and influence on filmmakers, designers, and artists around the world is keenly felt to this day. When asked to create a print based on the work of this legendary artist, Florian Bertmer said:
"I remember there were a few things that ran through my mind when asked to do a print based on The Incal. For one, I was obviously excited, and I have to admit felt honored to be asked to do it. Keep in mind we are talking about a comic book that was not only drawn by the godlike Jean Giraud, but also written by the one and only Alexandro Jodorowsky himself. It's kinda the comic book equivalent of the Ark of Covenant.
The other things going through my mind? Pure horror and dread. After many sleepless nights and mediocre sketches, I decided to not base my art on events from the book at all, but on what follows after John [Difool] saves the universe and gets reborn. Even though he is the savior, he is still the fool from the beginning, and his karma dooms him to be reborn and relive everything. We see him sitting confused and alone with all these key figures from his past life walking past him. Nobody recognizes him and vice versa.. The only memory he has are the creator's last words: 'Remember!'"
About Humanoids
HUMANOIDS released its first graphic novels 40 years ago in Paris, France, and has published thousands of titles since, including international bestsellers and iconic series such as The Incal and Barbarella. Based in Hollywood, California, with branches in Paris, London, and Tokyo, Humanoids is currently developing multiple film adaptations of its books, including Bouncer, Metal, I Am Legion, and The Z Word (aka The Zombies That Ate The World).

Review: "Jodorowsky's Dune" Documents the Beautiful Madness of an Iconoclast
[A version of this review was originally posted on Patreon.]
Jodorowsky’s Dune (2013)
Running time: 90 minutes (1 hour, 30 minutes)
MPAA – PG-13 for some violent and sexual images and drug references
DIRECTOR: Frank Pavich
PRODUCERS: Frank Pavich, Stephen Scarlata, Travis Stevens
CINEMATOGRAPHER: David Cavallo
EDITORS: Paul Docherty and Alex Ricciardi
COMPOSER: Kurt Stenzel
DOCUMENTARY – History, Film, Art
Starring: Alejandro Jodorowsky, Brontis Jodorowsky, Michel Seydoux, Devin Faraci, Chris Foss, Jean-Paul Gibon, H.R. Giger, Gary Kurtz, Drew McWeeney, Diane O’Bannon, Nicolas Winding Refn, and Richard Stanley
Jodorowsky’s Dune is a 2013 American documentary film from director Frank Pavich. This movie is the story of film director Alejandro Jodorowsky’s ambitious plans to adapt the seminal science fiction novel, Dune, into a film during the mid-1970s.
Dune is an epic science fiction novel that was originally serialized in the American science fiction magazine, Analog, over a two year period, from 1963 to 1965. Chilton Books published Dune as a hardcover in 1965. It won the first Nebula Award for “Best Novel” in 1965, and it shared the Hugo Award for “Best Novel” in 1966 (with …And Call Me Conrad by Roger Zelazny).
In 1971, film producer Arthur P. Jacobs optioned the film rights to Dune, but died before he could develop a film. In 1974, a French consortium purchased Dune’s film rights from Jacobs’ production company. Alejandro Jodorowsky was set to direct the film.
Jodorowsky was born in Chile in 1929. At a young age, he began writing poetry and later also became involved in theater. He moved to France in 1959, where he continued to work in theater and also made his first short film. He moved to Mexico and continued his work in avant-garde theater, but he later gained tremendous fame and notoriety for his work in film, beginning with Fando y Lis. His fame grew with the midnight movie cult classic, El Topo (1970), and with Holy Mountain (1973).
In 1974, Jodorowsky began writing the massive script that would be his adaptation of Dune. He approached progressive rock (prog rock) groups like Pink Floyd and Magma to provide the film score. He sought out Salvador Dalí, Orson Welles, David Carradine, and Mick Jagger, among others, to act in the film. Jodorowsky hired French comic book artist Jean Giraud a/k/a Moebius (1938 to 2012) to draw the film’s storyboards and to provide concept art and designs. He hired British science fiction book cover artist, Chris Foss, to design space ships for the film, and Swiss surrealist, H.R. Giger (February 5, 1940 to May 12, 2014), to provide conceptual art and designs.
After producing a massive hardcover book containing the script, the storyboards, and conceptual art, Jodorowsky and the film’s producers went to Hollywood, but were unable to convince any studio or anyone, for that matter, to finance the film. Jodorowsky’s project ultimately failed, but Jodorowsky’s Dune became a film legend.
Director Frank Pavich interviews Alejandro Jodorowsky and the people who were his collaborators on the stalled Dune project to tell the story that is Jodorowsky’s Dune. The interview subjects include Jodorowsky’s son, Brontis, who was going to play Dune’s lead character, Paul Atreides. Producers Michel Seydoux and Jean-Paul Gibon talk about the overall process of trying to create such a large-scaled film.
Film critics Devin Faraci and Drew McWeeney and film directors Nicolas Winding Refn and Richard Stanley talk about the project from a broader standpoint of art and of making movies in Hollywood. They also comment on how this failure still managed to be potent and influential. Artist Chris Foss and H.R. Giger talk about the sense of freedom that Jodorowsky gave them, and how he encouraged their imagination.
When a director makes a documentary about a person, that person must be a fascinating or compelling figure. Alejandro Jodorowsky is both, and really, Jodorowsky’s Dune is as much about Jodorowsky as it is about his attempt to film Dune, if not more so. Jodorowsky might be insane or be a madman, but he is an artist and a cinematic visionary. Best of all, he wants to make the people who work with him reach for the genius inside themselves. That is the kind of guy around which a director can build a great or, at least, exceptional feature film.
The other interview subjects, for the most part, are guys that I could listen to for hours as they talk about film, art, work, and life. However, the absence of Frank Herbert, the author of Dune, is conspicuous. Herbert died in 1986, and I can’t believe that there is no video or audio of him commenting on Jodorowsky’s attempt to make a film out of his epic novel. Dan O’Bannon, whom Jodorowsky hired to produce the special effects for Dune, died in 2009, but this documentary features audio of him talking about working on Dune. His widow, Diane O’Bannon, is featured in an on-camera interview in this film.
The lack of Frank Herbert in this film is a minor complaint. Jodorowsky’s Dune is one of the best documentary films that I have ever scene. It inspires me to be creative, and it makes me wish I could find a way to get Jodorowsky’s Dune produced. I really want to see that movie. Maybe, if it had been made, his Dune would have been an overblown epic, but just listening to Jodorowsky makes me believe that the film is a lost masterpiece, although it doesn’t exist. Perhaps, the magic that director Frank Pavich performs in Jodorowsky’s Dune make me want to believe that this film project is still alive... somewhere.
