About The Author
Diana Schutz
French artist Jean “Moebius” Giraud was a well-known comic artist with his hard-boiled western series Blueberry, but he built a second career under the pen name Moebius beginning in 1963 with a series of short stories. He became world famous for his science-fiction, artistic, and erotic art, and is admired for his collaborations with Alejandro Jodorowsky such as the wordless comics fantasy, Arzach.
In 1983 he co-founded the Aedena company and settled in Los Angeles. During his stay in the USA, he saw his most important works published by Marvel Comics and illustrated an episode of Silver Surfer by Stan Lee.
In addition to his large comics and illustration output, Moebius remained active in the film industry. He provided preliminary designs for films such as Alien, Tron, The Abyss, Masters of the Universe, and The Fifth Element, and concept art for Alejandro Jodorowsky’s never-realized adaptation of Frank Herbert’s Dune.
Moebius passed away in Paris on March 10, 2012, at the age of 73.
