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.

GIR - Oevres Tome 1, is the first collection of Jean Giraud’s early work and includes his debut comic strip from 1956. 130 pages that show the transformation from raw talent heavily influenced by comic strip heroes of the day to his style seen in Blueberry, one that made him a hero among his peers and readers alike.

Le Crobard, number 2, Editions du Genou, 1978 (195mm x 265mm, 44 pages).
Very rare magazine. Contains 10 pages of Jean Giraud and Moebius illustrations, including a handful quite explicit.
A couple of pages from VLAMOR. Considering the paper is cream but within the borders of each illustration it is white, I think the entire book was screen printed. The text and Illustrations (over 60) printed in purple.

Total printrun 320, of which numbers 1 to 200 destined for Europe, 201 to 300 for the United States and HC1 to HC20 for friends of the author and publisher. One of Moebius’ rarest limited editions is also one of the most stunning.
WOW. I would kill to see what’s inside this thing.
Hey, here are my long belated final colors! Thanks for maintaining the best tumblr in the galaxy.
