Second story of conflict between Metabaron (current one, aka No-Name) and Techno-Techno (man this is funny) sadistic Admiral. Successful in obtaining Metabaron DNA, Admiral creates the clone - Khonrad. As deadly as his genetic source Khonrad gets primed to kill No-Name but soon moral dilemma gets into his way.

Same as before Jodorowsky tell the story that shocks a lot (albeit it has more sense here than in previous issues) and follows the path of the folk hero epics (e.g. being born as grown up man using buffalo/animal).

Art is as great as in volume #1 while story is rather terse - No-name behaving like he has no intention to mess up with ordinary folks any more because he has seen end of everything with his inner-eye. This leads to very short action and story in general sequences - but again, "veni, vidi, vici" seems to be Jadorowski's approach from the start for Metabaron saga.

Metabaron is alive (heh, you truly taught he can be killed?) but his ship is heavily crippled by the Orne-8's transhuman bodyguard attack.

Nameless Metabaron is still pretty fatalistic but finding happiness with Orne-8 when suddenly Orne-8 decides to leave (I wont spoil you the reason why). This puts Metabaron on a path to destroy everything linked to him and go back to his family's home-world to seek out the mysterious device that is linked to Epyphite.

Again, a cliffhanger ending (little bit weird one too but I think/hope answers will be provided in next volume).

I am truly pleased there are no sadistic tantrums and shocks in this story (this makes it 2nd in sequence). Story becomes more about story and less about mutilations and carnage for the carnage sake.
