Alejandro Jodorowsky and Jean 'Moebius' Giraud sued Luc Besson after this movie was released, claiming that it had plagiarized their comic The Incal. Giraud sued for 13.1 million euros for unfair competition, nine million euros in damages and interest, and two to five percent of the net operating revenues of the movie. Jodorowsky sued for seven hundred thousand euros. The case was dismissed in 2004 on the grounds that only "tiny fragments" of the comic had been used, and also because Giraud had been hired by Besson to work on the movie before the allegations were made.
