The legendary French comics creator, Jean Giraud, AKA Moebius has died at the age of 73

---

It's another sad day for comics as the legendary and influential French artist Moebius has passed away.

Well known not only for his work on comics such as Blueberry, The Incal, Silver Surfer: Parable and Halo, but also for his brilliant design work for movies like Alien, Tron, The Fifth Element and more, Moebius was a true comics visionary and will very much be missed.

Ah damn.

He was great. His Silver Surfer cover was one of the greatest ever. R.I.P.

Larry Marder said it best on Twitter:

Moebius RIP. He died during the solar storms so it's as if even the universe wept.

Who watching Stan Lee?

Every time I'd read Brave New World, I'd envision how cool an adaptation with his art would have been.

RIP

Sad, sad news.

For those you don't know, there's a tumblr site, quenched consciousness, aka the airtightgarage, which is a huge Moebius fansite.
