We at Humanoids are excited to share that Janus Films has brilliantly restored one of our favorite films of all time, which by no coincidence is deeply rooted in Humanoids and Metal Hurlant history: René Laloux's GANDAHAR—an exquisite, animated sci-fi fantasy film set in a world designed by our very own CAZA.

The 4k Restoration of GANDAHAR (from the director of Fantastic Planet and Time Masters—created with Mœbius) is opening at IFC Center in New York on August 28th, and the Laemmle Glendale on September 4, along with special screenings at the American Cinematheque Los Feliz & Aero.

For more information on booking, visit janusfilms.com.

To experience more of Caza's sequential artworks, check out METAL HURLANT and our recent special release and Caza's magnum opus, ARKADI AND THE LOST TITAN.

***

An entire civilization must confront its destiny in alternative-animation pioneer René Laloux’s final feature, a cult classic of mind-bending science fiction. In a distant world, a merciless army of automata attacks Gandahar, turning its peace-loving people to stone. Hoping to discover the source of these Men of Metal, a council of matriarchs enlists the brave yet inexperienced warrior Sylvain (Pierre-Marie Escourro), who, while journeying through his planet’s outer regions, teams up with the Deformed, a race cast out from Gandahar after failed science experiments rendered them mutants. Soon, Sylvain learns that a gargantuan brain called Metamorphis (Georges Wilson) is responsible for his utopian society’s strife and—together with the beautiful Airelle (Catherine Chevallier)—travels through time to defeat him, in the process risking their lives and Gandahar’s very existence. Featuring stunningly surreal creatures and wondrously bizarre environments designed by renowned comic-book artist Caza, Gandahar is a visceral, visionary head-trip in which animation opens a gateway to the furthest reaches of the imagination.

You may think it m*sochistic of us to pursue the art of publishing in this day and age. And while many of us do possess subversive tendencies, the truth is, we do it because we believe that reading is not only one of life's greatest joys, but a solution to the world's toughest challenges. By feeding our minds, we open up possibilities of the present while increasing our potential to imagine a better future.

Devastatingly, our national literacy, and especially that of our youth, is at serious risk due to lack of and access to educational resources and...incentive. That is why we have paired up with Humble Bundle to create A MEGABUNDLE of digital comics of our premier titles, the purchasing of which supports the non-profit Reading Is Fundamental (RIF).

Reading Is Fundamental (RIF) is the oldest, largest, and nation’s leading children’s literacy nonprofit. They focus on disrupting the U.S. literacy crisis by bringing the joy of reading to children to create skilled readers through the distribution of reading resources to children nationwide with supporting literacy resources for educators, families, and community volunteers.

SPREAD JOY AND ACCESS TO READING BY SNAGGING SOME SICK COMICS (...for yourself...):
