Humanoids Remembers ‘The Metabarons’ Co-Creator Juan Gimenez With ‘The Deluxe Gimenez’ Collection

Artist and co-creator of The Metabarons, Juan Gimenez, passed away on April 3rd 2020, becoming one of the many victims of Covid-19. And now Humanoids are celebrating his career with a new hardcover book collecting two of his sci-fi stories in one new volume.

Including an introduction by legendary artist Bill Sienkiewicz, The Deluxe Gimenez presents The Fourth Power (“an elegant space opera about the odyssey of star soldier Exether Mega who discovers she’s at the center of a complex, secret experiment to create the ultimate weapon of war; and the wild, intergalactic romp”) and The Starr Conspiracy  (“which follows an aspiring young journalist on a wild goose chase to uncover the conspiratorial scoop of the century”).

Alejandro Jodorowsky says of his time working with Gimenez:

“I closely collaborated with Juan Giménez for ten years and together, we created The Metabarons saga. What facilitated my task as we offered him to work on the complex world of the Metabarons was that he already embodied the immortal No-Name, the last Metabaron. In my unconscious, Juan Giménez cannot die. He will continue on, drawing like the master warrior that he was.”

The Deluxe Gimenez will be available on July 12th, 2022 from Humanoids
