First-look preview of The Sons of El Topo – Volume One: Cain

July 27, 2018 by Amie Cranswick

Back in March Boom! Studios announced that legendary filmmaker Alejandro Jodorowsky’s El Topo would ride again with The Sons of El Topo Volume One: Cain, an original graphic novel sequel to the 1970 Mexican Acid Western film, and now we’ve got a first look preview which we have for you here…

This sequel, arriving in stores December 2018, tells the story of El Topo—a bandit without limits and a man with no moral compass. But when his journey through the arid west brought him face to face with a series of rogue outcasts, he found enlightenment in the unlikeliest place and was forever transformed, becoming a holy vessel imbued with the power to perform miracles. This was a journey that took him far from his first born son, Cain, and brought about the birth of Abel.

Fueled by resentment, and unable to kill his saintly father, Cain begins the slow pursuit of his half-brother in a tale of magic and mayhem in THE SONS OF EL TOPO VOLUME ONE: CAIN, featuring a haunting cover by José Ladrönn, and continuing the mythic tale only in graphic novel format.

The Sons of El Topo – Volume One: Cain is set to go on sale in December.
