ppint. 25th Oct 2019		Review möbius, or mœbius, or moebius: one of the two main by-lines under which the major bandes desinées artist and writer jean giraud (q.v.) worked - he also used gir, and jean gir, contractions of his name. möbius was used mostly upon his science fictional, fantasy, fantastic and surreal work, and is by far the better-known by-line in america. after working at fleurus and hachette, he worked on most of the blueberry western band desinées for éditions dargaud, and with other dissatisfied artists and writers, lead a late sixties revolution, insurrection or revolt over matters such as royalties and residuals, and artistic freedom, jean giraud/möbius and his colleagues, co-authors and others effectively reinvented the realm of the bandes desinées to include generally more adult ideas, themes, treatments in addition to those of the previous child and teenager-oriented - and limited - ideas, inter alia co-founding the publisher, les humanoïdes associés, métal hurlant (= "cursing/screaming/shouting metal/machines") (q.v.) - much of whose content later published in the independent-but-associated american heavy metal magazine (q.v.) - and he greatly influenced the worlds of american comics, magazines, films - including major american film makers, both by being directly employed upon projects, including ton, q.v., and also indirectly. jean giraud’s published works and collaborative works include "fort navajo", "blueberry", "le bandard fou", "cauchemar blanc" (= "white bed-dream", = "nightmare in white"), "arzach", " the airtight garage", "les yeux du chat" (= "cat's eyes"), "l’incal" (the adventures of "john difool"), "le monde d'aedena" (= "eden world") ("the aedena cycle"), "inside mœbius", and more. ✔︎ Helpful Review?
