 Re: RIP Jean Giraud, alias Moebius
Sad day. I'll go read l'Incal and curse the "friend" who threw away my complete Métal Hurlant collection. I would have needed a good dose of Garage Hermétique right now...

 Re: RIP Jean Giraud, alias Moebius
I don't think anyone can overstate the skill and creative genius of Moebius. There is far too much great work to be posted in one thread, but here is some of his conceptual work for various popular movies (for those who don't know his other stuff) Jean "Moebius" GiraudAnother loss of a great legend. RIP

What a terrible month for losing those that illustrated my youth... time to crack out Les Maîtres Du Temps and Absynth!

 Re: RIP Jean Giraud, alias Moebius
Omg, FIrst Ralph McQuarrie and now Moebius. Very sad. My first memory of Moebius was in (as Oli mentioned) Heavy Metal magazine as a teenager. The Art of Moebius by The Moog Image Dump, on Flickr

 Re: RIP Jean Giraud, alias Moebius
That is a great doc. I especially enjoyed the discussion concerning the connections between himself, Jodorowsky, and Giger in the 70s/80s.
