NP: Jodorowsky's Tusk

[Mark Thibodeau]

Just yesterday I picked up a copy of Jodorowsky's newly released book
Panic Fables, available in English for the first time ever.

https://www.forewordreviews.com/reviews/the-panic-fables/

It's a collection of the legendary comic strips Jodorowsky drew for an
alternative Mexican newspaper after his plays were banned, and before
he turned his talents to cinema... which means that they are
profoundly important in terms of his development, both as an artist
and as a modern (serious, real deal) mystic.

I'll let you guys know what I think of the book!
