Madwoman of the Sacred Heart HC

Cult filmmaker Alexandro Jodorowsky and the visionary French artist Moebius have teamed up again, this time to bring us a comics about the coming of the new Messiah. University professor Mangel (drawn with a Jodorowsky likeness), a restless man haunted by inner demons, becomes involved in a plot by a group of religious fanatics to bring about the birth of a new Savior: he has been chosen to be the reluctant father. Are they a sect of dangerous madmen, or is God really using them as his messengers? Count on Jodorowsky to provoke, challenge, and offend. Count on Moebius to provide the stunning graphics.

Alan Mangel has it all. As a popular Philosophy Professor at the world famous La Sorbonne university, he is wealthy, married, and academically acclaimed. On his sixtieth birthday, Alan will lose everything. Alan s wife leaves him for another man. Professor Mangel s students lose all respect for him. And Elisabeth, a beautiful young student whom continues to believe in his teachings, claims she received a vision from God that he is to impregnate her with the second-coming of John the Baptist. As Alan Mangel gives himself up to the wild forces bullying him through life, he engages on a spiritual journey that challenges his reality . Everything once true is proven to be false. Everything once false is proven to be true. MADWOMAN OF THE SACRED HEART is one of the most compelling and personal works by legendary comics international superstars, Moebius and Alexandro Jodorowsky.
