COMICS! WE LOVE ‘EM! And so does Alejandro Jodorowsky, and on this episode of the world’s finest Jodorowsky-themed podcast JodoWOWsky we’re going deep on three of Jodo’s most impressive comic works of the 90s and 2000s. We start by checking out his post-Incal collaboration with the legendary Jean “Moebius” Giraud: the mind-bending satire MADWOMAN OF THE SACRED HEART! Next up are two collaborations with the ALSO legendary François Boucq, starting with his epic violent western BOUNCER, and finishing with the playful collection of fables THE SHADOW’S TREASURE. All that and all of the latest Jodorowsky news. Who could ask for anything more? Enjoy!

Despite his increasing success with comics, Jodorowsky was still reeling from the failure of his Dune project when he decided to adapt Reginald Campbell’s “Poo Lorn of the Elephants” into the disastrous 1980 film TUSK. Disowned by the director (“Don’t see Tusk. I bury the film.”) and nearly impossible to track down in a watchable form, the movie remains an enigma in Alejandro Jodorowsky’s career. On this episode of JodoWOWsky, we look at how TUSK came about, whether it’s the disaster so often reported, whether a better film might be hiding inside the original elements, and how the heck the whole thing fell apart.
