Review

THE METABARONS... is resolutely Not Normal, as you may expect from a writer who was also the director of cult movies El Topo and Santa Sangre. --Warren Ellis, Writer of PLANETARY, TRANSMETROPOLITAN, IRON MAN: EXTREMIS

A full-tilt Space Opera with ideas to burn on every page, this insane epic careens across the story of generation after generation of intergalactic Superwarriors. This is an all-out, out of control, and completely mental exercise in imagination and lunacy. --Matt Fraction, Writer of CASANOVA, INVINCIBLE IRON MAN, THOR
