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.

Career Timeline: 1990 - The Goddess
Moebius publishes his third book in the Aedena Cycle series, called The Goddess. Like Gardens of Aedena, it was published simultaneously in France(by Casterman) and the United States(by Marvel/Epic, as Moebius 7: The Goddess):
“Since my last book in the series, The Gardens of Aedena, I have undergone not as much a philosophical evolution as a variety of new life experiences. These changes that have occurred in my life have found their way into my story, One could remark that my stories often say everything about myself without revealing anything.”
—Moebius, an excerpt from the afterward in Moebius 7

Posting sequential pages of a strip here is a little odd. I’ve been posting them in order, which makes sense for followers who read them as soon as they go up. But to read whole strips after I’ve posted them, one needs to click on the tag and scroll all the way down to the first entry. This can take going through multiple pages, and makes me almost want to post them in reverse order for the sake of posterity. I won’t, but still. It’s weird. I also wish I would’ve added a tag to all of Stel and Atan’s Aedena Cycle stories, since there is a very clear succession to them. I didn’t have that foresight, so here they are in order:
Upon A Star (39 pages)
The Gardens of Aedena (51 pages)
The Goddess (81 pages)
Stel (74 pages, posting in progress)
These are incredibly wonderful stories. I personally think these are Moebius’ opus and, along with his Airtight Garage strips, display the purest distillation of the man’s work. They’re my favorite, anyway.
