Title: RIP Moebius Post by: RhyssaFireheart on March 13, 2012, 12:58:52 PM French artist Jean Giraud aka Moebius dies at 73 (http://www.gavinrothery.com/my-blog/2012/3/10/jean-giraud-aka-moebius-rip.html).
Not sure if anyone else knows of him or cares, but I liked his style a lot. Title: Re: RIP Moebius Post by: HaemishM on March 13, 2012, 01:19:22 PM Damn. :cry:
Title: Re: RIP Moebius Post by: Bunk on March 13, 2012, 02:10:39 PM I had to look at the art to link it to the name, but I certainly recognized the style. Tis sad.

Such an awesome artist, I remember first seeing his stuff in Heavy Metal when I was a teenager and being completely confused and amazed by his work. Very sad that he's dead, he leaves a fantastic body of work behind him though. Title: Re: RIP Moebius Post by: Zetor on March 13, 2012, 02:41:26 PM I remember his work too -- RIP.
He was one of the people who helped put Hungarian animation on the map (Les Maitres du temps (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Les_Ma%C3%AEtres_du_temps)), so news of his death is all over the Hungarian news sites. |
