quenched consciousness

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.

Jean ‘Moebius’ Giraud: Your Favorite Artist’s Favorite Artist Over at Comics Alliance, David Brothers writes up a nice piece about Moebius, his influence, and specifically breaks down Silver Surfer: Parable. I like his reasoning for choosing SSP. While it’s not the man’s best work by a longshot, its accessibility is important, because it can be found in any comic store with a heavy back issue section. It’s funny that I used to think those two issues of comic were rare, because they were printed by the hundreds of thousands. Maybe even millions. I’ve wound up with something like 6 copies of each over the last few years.
