Metabarons is a criminally underrated narrative with a ton of interesting concepts in the sci-fi genre. Definitely worth looking into if anyone is interested

[@rebellious_red7123]

@Hedge Academy Aghar & Steelhead are probably the most interesting of the Metabarons. I also really like Honorata a lot despite her not being a metabaron, but she has a sisters of battle from Warhammer 40k that really highlights her character.

[@raidermaxx2324]

but is it really underrated??? every "rating" ive ever read about that narrative, has been rated extremely positively almost "over" so.

[@TheSonshade]

I love the Heavy Metal feel of the whole art and I always liken it to Dune or 40k. Such a weird and cool epic.

[@rebellious_red7123]

@@raidermaxx2324 it’s underrated in the sense not many people know about it. It’s sort of it’s own niche genre of sci-fi that I find more enjoyable

[@mawinstallation6626]

@@rebellious_red7123 That isn't what underrated means. Unknown or niche is a better word to describe it

[@t_xxic8814]

When I first stumbled upon The Incal through a friend about 20 years ago I was instantly hooked and read all the Incal, Metabaron and Technopriest stories in the following months. Definately one of the coolest, bloodiest, weirdest and most fantastic universes ever created by an artist.

Thanks for shining a spotlight on The Metabarons, Quinn. It's absolutely epic. Also, RIP Juan Giménez who passed away in 2020.

[@nathandrel]

Gimenez art in this is so freaking fantastic, I still can't wrap up my head around how good the artwork is. Organic, present, so immersive. Masterpiece.

[@matsm0n0]

I've been in love with Gimenez' art since the 90's, and I think the Metabarons is his grand opus. The story is a tragedy, and that's really uncommon these days. I really wish it was made into a movie - and still I don't. It's an amazing story that you'd want to see put in motion, yet it's perhaps best to leave it the way it is, and enjoy it in comic book form.

[@girugamesh9001]

YES! I am so happy you're finally talking about Metabarons! One of my all time favorites!

[@kushjones14888]

i’m loving all of these videos lately! well i’m adding yet another sci-fi book to my list. this makes like 5 different sci-fi books i’ve added to my list thanks to you! keep it up!

[@kristophergermo1793]

Really my favorite thing about any sci-fi is the strange and absurd. I think the insanity actually makes it MORE believable. Gotta check this out.

[@Hecarim420]

True, but the catch 🪝 is that this "weird" story need to be consistent/coherent in "their own universe". Even in science is true :v ==> Actually in some way all of us, are just stories that brain tell to ourselves ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

[@magnuskallas]

True. When sci-fi is too down-to-earth and mundane, it might acquire a feeling of uncanny if not done perfectly. Some crazyness pushes its concept and immersion.

[@patreekotime4578]

Yeah I agree. I actually wish we could have at least gotten an animated version of Jodorowskis Dune! Something along the lines of Heavy Metal or Wizards.

[@dindindundun8211]

If I feel uncomfortable, I know I have encountered something ALIEN

[@samuelraji8343]

If you loved getting bombarded with insane and interesting ideas. Try the Drifting Classroom, it's not celebrated enough in manga circles but I think people who love The Metabarons and Prophet would appreciate it more.

[@ryang.5094]

I have REALLY enjoyed the evolution of your channel as well as this unique new route you’re taking; Definitely my favorite channel on KZbin.

[@lukevankleef4245]

I've read the Metabarons and I found myself fascinated by the character of the Emperoress. They're clearly not a 'good' ruler by a long shot, but unlike most evil rulers in fiction, they're also not suicidally stupid. They're willing to swallow their pride and negotiate with the Metabarons, and keep their word as well, because they know the Metabarons are too powerful to betray, and having that lineage remain loyal to them is of utmost importance.

[@mynameistania]

Hell yes! Thank you for talking about the Metabarons. So little out there on it. I'd love for you to do more on this series in the future, would be fantastic to have your take on the stories :)

[@ROooaAAaar]

Thanks for your amazing work man. I'm from France and in here people really are into graphic novels and comics (especially the french/belgian ones /japanese mangas too). In here, the Metabaron have always been a classic, you can find it in every bookstore so I'm really glad you put that one on the table, it deserves massive respect in terms of artistic audacity and aura.

[@MrDEAFBLINDDUMB]

Happy about the new content and the frequency of release. Thought provoking as always. Keep it up!

[@stiopruryd4879]

Thanks Quinn. Your take on scifi is one of the most interesting and consistent out there

[@bottlezone]

So glad to see The Metabarons get some attention! There really is nothing else quite like it. Definitely check out the follow up series (or The Metabarons Second Cycle as they are publishing it now).

[@TheNefastor]

The Incal saga is pretty much in every library in France. I've grown up with that universe, and others from Mobius (the world of the Hermetic Garage, notably). It's perhaps the most unique comic book universe there is. WH40K fans might like it, you can qualify it of grimdark and it has its fair share of cosmic horror and eldritch monsters. Plus the art is fantastic, you could frame nearly every panel of every comic and put it in an art gallery. The themes it deals with, like alienation of the cheapness of life really make you take pause and think. Can't recommend it enough. This isn't your Marvel / DC sort of comic.

[@hartmutholzgraefe]

Gimenez by himself was already doing very impressive stuff, the two of them coming together was one of the best things that could ever happen :)

[@eyeprops5422]

As a big Heavy Metal fan, Juan Gimenez was one of my favorite artists. Was sad to hear of his passing due to Covid-19.

[@darkage5]

Heavy Metal was my introduction to his work. I'm so glad my Father was a collector.

[@hartmutholzgraefe]

[@iLikeMyOwnPosts]

[@Kulumuli]

I've read almost everything Moebius was involved in. And I see the artists who have followed really respect his work. But I need to read the Meta Baron trilogy, which I have not yet done. The greatest graphic novel I've ever read is The Airtight Garage by Moebius alone, following the Incal trilogy with Jodorowski, especially volume 1-4.

[@Maggbba]

Le Garage Hermétique! Ahah, I'm currently reading that one, It's really amazing. I like to imagine how it could be adapted into a movie, every page is fascinating.

[@Kulumuli]

@@Maggbba Adopting it into a movie will certainly not be an easy feat. There are two following books to this, The Man from Ciguri and Le Chasseur Déprime (I think the latter isn't (yet?) translated to english.

[@Maggbba]

@@Kulumuli Yeah, I imagine it would be tremendously challenging without a lot of exposition but if done right, it could be amazing. I had no idea about the sequels, I live in Toulouse so it shouldn't be too hard to find them, thanks for the info.

[@Kulumuli]

@@Maggbba The later issues are not as good as the first. Same with the Gardens of Aedena (which also is great). But it seems to me that Moebius really wanted to finish both of these series. And he did. I think Le Chasseur Déprime is one of his last works before he died. So kudos to him for that. And I can think of no comic artist coming close to Moebius. I think Moebius/Jean Giraud is one of the greatest if not the greatest artist in the 20th century, regardless of genre.

[@andresvizgrra8882]

@@Kulumuli estoy de acuerdo contigo

Read Metabarons way back. Probably almost 8 year's ago. Best sci-fi comic I have read. The art was amazing and the story is insane, but that insanity is what had me hooked It's so unique in sci-fi genre in general.

[@ElevatorMusic476]

Really glad that you finally made a video about the Metabarons! Read the book a few times now and its one of my favorites! Juan Gimenez art style is one of my favorites next to Jean Giraud; I love it! ✌

[@pudlordtynan919]

A wonderful friend of mine gifted me both the Metabarons and the Incal, and they're really something else. They're not similar stories in many ways, despite sharing a single character and taking place in the same universe -- But that doesn't detract from how truly fascinating they are. They're very European, despite the only European involved was Moebius. The rest were Latin American artists. Also Juan Giménez unfortunately passed a few years back, I hope wherever he is he knows his work was kickass.

[@Rum-Runner]

What do you mean by “very European”? Not that I doubt what you’re saying, but I’m just curious what about the series gives off a European vibe. I’m very new to the series so I don’t know exactly what to expect.

Jodorowsky took some inspirations from Metaphysics / Magick too, for example the Emperor/Empress, you can see it in the Tarot-card "Aeon" in the crowley-tarot, an androgyn being in an egg (and the whole lot behind it, difficult to squeeze in here)

[@deepflake5851]

Yes, Jodorowsky even wrote a book about the Tarot, which I am lucky to own😊

[@pronoydutta614]

I agree that it was a good thing Jodorowsky's Dune didn't get made. The novel was gritty and intense. Jodorowsky seemed to want to Co opt the material to make something that strayed from the themes and core of that series. It was a lot more melodramatic, especially near the ending. It would have been clunky at best. Dune is dire and pregnant with tension. Metabarons sounds much more interesting as an original work though.

[@TheChzoronzon]

Yep Same with Lynch... you simply don't hire him to make hard sci-fi and sociopolitical/ecological commentary... Lynch can make a good Ballard, but not a good Clarke. What were they thinking? lol

[@meesalikeu]

@@TheChzoronzon i never bought that because the studio took dune away from lynch. he was doing it right until then, for a solo movie version that is. it would have been longer and better if he had his way, but i still love it for what it is, including all the voiceovers. its certainly not as plodding and flat as the new dune.

[@sammiller6631]

@@TheChzoronzon Spot on assessment. Lynch was a fish out of water.

[@sammiller6631]

@@meesalikeu It is untrue the "studio took dune away from lynch". Lynch originally planned to split _Dune_ into two movies which the studio liked, but then changed his mind and tried to cram the whole book into one movie. Lynch got overwhelmed and the studio had to push him to finish, but he had mostly given up at that point (which the movie shows). The new _Dune_ is not plodding or flat. It helps if you take off the rose-tinted nostalgia glasses. Lynch's dueling shields look like blurry Minecraft figures flailing about. It's lazy CGI compared to other 1980's CGI movies like Tron. Or changing the weirding way into the Weirding Module because he did not like the idea of "kung-fu on sand dunes". (Or maybe he was too lazy to bother with the extra effort needed to make impressive "kung-fu" visuals.) It's a haphazard uneven movie throughout, including the voiceovers.

[@METALFREAK03]

@@sammiller6631 they took all his budget away and then made him interject things he didn't want. That is "taking" it away from him, as they removed Lynch's room to breathe after intially allowing him more freedom. But yes Lynch made it one film as he had other projects brewing at the time and didn't want all his energy into one franchise.

Out of curiosity, have you ever read anything from Michael Moorcock's library?

If you have what's your favorite story/stories? Despite liking The Elric Saga, it's not my favorite series. I like A Nomad of Time with Oswald Bastable.

I got to know this saga thanks to my then-boyfriend (now husband) who is a fan. We were just talking about it recently, and how it could be very well worth having a whole series, not just a movie. The story is so packed with events and details and stuff that it could basically summarise a whole war in a couple of tables, and then you have, like, the history of 5 generations to work on. Besides, the art is really stunning, from the battleships to the emotions distorting the faces, and the characters are well-defined and have purpose - I especially like how the female characters are not just there to be incredibly beautiful but they are also actively taking part in the story.

[@eldritchbeauty]

You've inspired me to search for more sci-fi graphic novels. I hope they become more mainstream, as I imagine you could explore different, more "out there" ideas more readily in the medium, even more readily than traditional novels. Random question -- have you ever read the Animorphs? I always thought those books had an odd reputation, as most people get caught up on the book covers, but I've hardly seen anyone talk about the sci-fi elements in the series and some of the more mature themes the series had. It was my gateway into sci-fi and fantasy, and I kind of wish more people talked about it.

[@captainstroon1555]

I first encountered the Incal in middle school and was first hesitant but grew to love it. Later in highschool, the library there had a few books of The Metabarons. I guess already being familiar with the Incal eased me into the grotesque beauty of these stories. They are definitelly a huge inspiration for my own work.

[@the80sboys17]

I grew up reading The Incal, Tha Metabarons and the Thechnopriest, I loved them so much. I totally agree with you about the Jodorowsky Dune movie. I'd love a more indepth video on the story in the Metabarons and hear more of your thoughts on it. Thanks for the great videos.

[@florianpierredumont4775]

Mix Jodorowski with Gimenez, and you got something very weird indeed. My dad had all Gimenez SF comics so I grew up with big cities, half naked ideal humans, robots, oozing mutated cyborgs and stuff.

[@matthewconstantine5015]

The Metabarons (along with Hellboy) are what got me into reading comics. Other than reading some TMNT & GI Joe when I was a kid, I'd never been into comics. Anytime I tried, I was left cold. In my mid 20s, a friend of mine really listened to what I liked (most folks just foisted their favorite comic on me and said, "read this; it's great.") and hooked me up with a the first trade paperback of the Metabarons and The Conqueror Worm from Hellboy. 20 years later, I'm still reading comics. But I lean toward the weird. The late, great Juan Giménez may be my single favorite comic artist of all time. Even before reading Metabarons, I'd seen his work in Heavy Metal Magazines I'd swiped from my brother. Amazing work.

The Metabarons saga I saw for the first time in a colored design remake in a Heavy Metal Magazine issue (a resume of the story told by Tonto to another droid) it was still absolutely outstanding. It was one of the few comics I cried reading in my life, because usually only books, some games and some movies are packed with emotions.

[@victoria87cub]

Thank you for this. I own a copy of the Metabarons tarot and the artwork is beautiful. Tarots are one of Jodorowski's many talents.

[@isaacrubin9606]

The Metabaron (the sequel series, not the character) is quite a wild ride - though that's par for the course - and features one of the most gleefully evil villains I've seen (it's the guy with the massive mechanical arms, he's damn near a self-parody with how evil he acts). Still, apart from one particularly poorly explained plot twist, it's a very entertaining continuation. There's a part of the story where it feels like either the plot of James Cameron's Avatar or Disney's Atlantis, the Technopriests feature heavily, and throughout it the Metabaron is looking for purpose in life as the last of his line. Or to be incredibly reductive: It's about the Metabaron having a midlife crisis while a sequence of Jodorowsky-absurd characters try to kill him.
