This is an advance order item. Your order is due by January 23 for this product. There was Before the Incal, and now there is 'Before' The Metabarons. From legendary creator Alexandro Jodorowsky and artist Das Pastoras comes the tale of Dayal de Castaka, here for all of those who dreamed of a prequel to The Metabarons. The Metabarons dealt with the extraordinary saga of the genealogy of the galaxy's ultimate warrior. But his ancestors also had ancestors. And far from being noble warriors with an inflexible code, one will discover they were in fact disloyal and lawless pirates born out of brutality and war.
