A blog exploring the work of Jean Giraud, aka Gir, aka Moebius. Basically, there didn't seem to be any places online that gave a comprehensive collection of his work, so I made one.
[The official site of Moebius] - While there are very few of his works available to an English-only audience, the last thing I want to do is take away from potential sales by hosting his work here. If you speak French and can enjoy his books the way they were originally meant to be enjoyed, please click over and show him some love.

Everyone!
Steve Bissette, who among his many accolades, published the brilliant anthology series Taboo(best known for first serializing Alan Moore and Eddie Campbell’s From Hell), is selling off copies of Taboo #4 on his site right now FOR ONLY FIVE DOLLARS. This is the issue that first published in English, in full, Moebius and Jodorowsky’s Eyes of the Cat. It also contains interviews with both of them, as well as an El Topo short by Spain Rodriguez. And dang, just check everything that’s in this thing:
“There’s a full-color cover by Moebius; Neil Gaiman and Michael Zulli‘s “Baby Cakes,” Elaine Lee and Charles Vess‘s “Morrigan Tales,” Mark Askwith and Rick Taylor‘s “Davey’s Dream,” Tim Lucas and Steven Blue‘s “Blue Angel,” and the special “yellow pages” section (a book in and of itself) featuring the first-ever English language publication of the rare Moebius masterpiece “Eyes of the Cat,” written by renowned author and film director Alejandro Jodorowsky (The Holy Mountain, Santa Sangre), accompanied by exclusive interviews with the creators, articles on the making of the story, and master cartoonist Spain’s never-before-reprinted underground comix adaptation of Jodorowsky’s midnight movie classic, El Topo.”
[it’s also got a chapter of From Hell tucked in the back]
The sale will be going till the end of the month, or until he sells out. I absolutely cherish my copy, and can’t recommend this enough to you. FIVE BUCKS, PEOPLE.
