- The artwork carries the story well. Although expressive, it can be a bit cartoony at times. It's not the reason you're here.
I'm not a Jodorowsky scholar, but some themes seem to recur in his collaborations, notably an oppressive theocracy (or something like), rebels of some kind, and a touch of magic. Moonface combines these nicely, especially in the title character. Mute (except sometimes, sort of), he blithely flouts convention, authority, and laws of physics. Not that he seems to care, this puts him in opposition to two different sects. Both sects seem to divide the world along all-too-familiar lines what they control, and their enemies. Unable to understand how they could be irrelevant to him and unable to control him, he must be an opponent. He seems almost equally inattentive to his followers. Drawn in by his charisma and miracles, The Powers That Be can only understand them as an army of opposition, raising the tension and the stakes.
As always, Humanoids's production values are among the best. If there's enough room on your shelves, this could earn a place. Shelf space has become a critical resource for me - I'll keep it for now, but triage might change my mind.
-- wiredweird - This is definitely one of Alejandro Jodorowsky 's superb works. Actually I have read his books, Comics and watched his films. They make you think about life, not just your life, I mean everything around d you. What an unbelievable mind. I would love to talk with him. Just amazing.
