The Knights of Heliopolis

“Begins as a riff on The Man in the Iron Mask but quickly twists, turns, and defies easy categorization. It includes mystical rituals, a secret history of the world, talking gorillas, an exploration of sex and gender roles, and brutal brawls between superhuman combatants. Fun to read and epic in scope.” - Library Journal Starred Review“Shot through with provocative spins on historical figures … traversing a timely subtext around gender identity … This transcendent if bloody tale of duplicity and redemption takes adventure comics fans on an appealing and entertaining voyage” - Publishers Weekly“Fantastical, thrilling and just a lot of fun … a beautiful new approach to the classic story without compromising on its intrigue or swashbuckling fun” - Comic Book Resources“A gripping read” - Starburst Magazine“‘The Knights Of Heliopolis’ is a work of great imagination with terrific, colourful, dramatic art” -SFcrowsnest“A roller coaster of a ride” - Geek Native“Assassin’s Creed On Acid … a masterpiece and another stunning publication from Titan Comics” - Comicon.com“Artist Jérémy’s work is great. His panel are rich in detail, and his facial expressions are evocative … A couple more comics at this quality and I can see Jérémy mentioned in the same breath as Georges Bess, François Boucq and José Ladrönn.” - Bleeding Cool “Jodorowsky explores gender identity, human nature and overall spirituality. It makes for some fantastic reading that expands upon Dumas’ original story in a thought-provoking way.” - Geek Culture Review
