    I'm 72 now and was in my 20's when HM came out here in the US. Needles to say I bought every issue. Moebius elevated the comic genre from soap-opera conflicts to philosophical questions set amidst crumbling yet vibrant backdrops. Despite interactions the protagonist dwells within his own mind..as do we all. I Salute this fine mind whose work has enriched my life.

    It's no secret that a lot of mangakas were fascinated by Moebius work. This whole mix of organic and technology can be found in things like Akira, Ghost in the Shell, Evangelion, Gunnm... The whole dark sci-fi stuff of the 70s and 80s with Alien, Blade Runner, and Moebius work deeply influenced Japanese artists. To Miyazaki's credit, he invented a much more optimistic atmosphere, poetic and childish, innocent, rather than tortured, colorful and sexual which was Moebius' style. Miyazaki is deep, but cute, dreamy. It's the optimistic nation that followed the horrors of WW2. Moebius seems like a much more disturbed individual, with flaws and dark thoughts, a bit like William Burroughs, without the drugs. Miyazaki is pure and childlike, he only took Moebius as an inspiration.

There is no shame in Miyazaki admitting to taking sometings from Moebius because all artists find inspirations from other artists and external sources. .. any artist who says he is completely original is simply lying out of pure unfounded arrogance ..

    Jean Moebius Giraud was actually a great master in drawing and comic book art. First off he was really great in drawing whatever things he had to, great knowledge of drawing , history of art and history of comic books so that he could also study the art of other great comic books masters which are classics, like Alex Raymond, Milton Caniff, Hal Foster, Winsor Mc Cay, Herriman, and many others. Giraud was great technically and alot of great art you can find also in his Blueberry western series. They are so good it seems to read a John Ford or Sergio Leone or Sam Peckimpah movie on paper. From that and the interest in science fiction, Maya art, and many other references, comes Moebius. Moebius is all what the work as Gir cannot be, that is to say, alot of experimentation, both in style and things he drew, dream, imagination, surrealism, in one word freedom he couldn't have while doing more classic western strips. The great thing about Moebius is great technical skills coupled together with great imagination, this is what makes an actually complete artist.

    I really laugh at that scene in Crimson Tide where a fight breaks out between two sailors, about who drew the best Silver Surfer - Jack "King" Kirby, or Moebius. Denzel Washington breaks up the fracas, and asks what the hell was the problem. Denzel's character says, "Anyone who has who knows anything about comic books knows the Jack Kirby Silver Surfer is the only true Silver Surfer!" I think that line was probably (duh) written by Quentin Tarantino, as he did a script polish on the whole film.

    Being sound and grounded doesn't mean he knows how to deepen his relationships. What I read from what he said about his feelings of abandonment from his father, and loneliness from his mother, he has some kind of hyper independence response to trauma, which could also explain the need to show himself as an egocentric/unreachable person as a defense.

    The very last drawing they show is meaningful, you see Giraud flying saying "I feel like a superhuman" "I want it to never stop" and I feel that summarize very well Giraud with his overgrown super ego when it comes to drawing but also I think this is exactly what happens in the head of many graphics artists, especially when they were drawing during their teenage years and their minds were blooming.

Metal Hurlant was Moebius's thing. Moebius inspired comics Jodorowsky inspired movies. Although yes if you include the "Grey Area" factor those two creators were the catalyst for what we have today.

Reminded me of the time I visited the "Musée d'Orsay" impressionists' gallery 4 four year earlier during my oral admission examinations to engineering schools. And a couple of months later, when I was in an hospital bed after a nasty accident, Bilal, Jodo, Gimenez and Moebius to name a few, were the ones to help me during the hardest time of my life. Still remember when I discovered the "Heavy metal" movie during a festival in a local theater back in 1996 alongside Macros, Akira and Ghost in the shell to name a few, what a thing!

    Giraud talks about Mexico and the desert (7:20), but he skips his life changing experience with mushrooms. «Moebius kept his hallucinogens consumption during the 70s, which coincidentally were the most experimental years of his career. He also was a marihuana smoker his entire life. He never denied this consumption. He recognised that psychoactive drugs were an evident an desirable influence for his artwork. Titles as "The Hermetic Garage", “The Incal" (made hand by hand with Jodorowsky) or "Arzak" were remarkably influenced by the effects of different substances. In fact, these works derived from his psychedelic trips began to be his most recognizable works.»

    In the US Jean Giraud is most known for his Moebius work. But his European audience of a certain age is probably most familiar with his art on the Lt. Blueberry strip serialized in the comic anthology “Pilote”. Sometimes I don't know which of his work I love more. I love the elegant, beautifully drawn work of his Moebius style, but it's his use of light and shadow in Blueberry, the gritty quality to his vision of the western genre and his breathtaking vistas of the American Southwest that I find absolutely thrilling (I suspect he was most influenced by Sergio Leoni’s films). Here’s the test: If I were offered any page of his original art, I think I would probably take a Lt. Blueberry page.

    Bellissimo. Avevo visto la mostra alla fondazione Cartier di Parigi nel 2011, e avevo capito la profondità culturale che si manifesta nei suoi disegni. Sì è inaugurata in questi giorni una grande mostra a Napoli. Spero di poter andare a visitarla e rinnovare così le emozioni già provate.

    According to Lewis Trondheim Moebius used to make compliments to cartoonists so that they would feel happy about their work. The goal was for them to not go and try to out-do him.

As a native french, I can tell that they dumbed down some very interesting points. Btw, if you are into french comic, enki bilal, who is interviewed during this doc is nowaday, one of the biggest in the game. His recent serie "Bug" is absolutly outstanding and charming.

    I COULDN'T STOP MYSELF and stopped the video that it just not finish yet.. THIS IS AMAZING JOB .. l don't know how can l explain or express myself or my ideas about this documentary and containing itself .. The GODs of illustration ,the GOD s of drawing , the GODs of fantastic art or gods of new era .. Well yes i'm very excited and satisfied with this doc. movie . Especially viewing point of the artists that starting point from a page to the huge industry of comicbook . Also Jodorowsky's critics is very very valuable for this industry . He can be unfair and can fearless to this "industry shit" paradox . As says Mike Mignola " we love your work but we will fix it " Please my holly f***ng industry god please don't fix that art and artists . May be you know or not about the " Jodorowsky's " The Dune " and what that hell happened to him and his great project . And how the Aliens , Star Wars or "fixed " The Dune published . l called as a paradox this case cause l am really wonder that if with or without this industry can be possible these artists and their artworks as known / popular .. And beside this bad sides there is an another great thing is the BBC l can honestly saying that at least l learn many things from them .. Thank you ..thank you thank you Whole of the great Masters .. 🙏
