The Coordinator
 
Jean Henri Gaston Giraud, or Moebius, is one of the great visionary cartoonists of our time. He cofounded the influential magazine Métal hurlant in 1975, which was the venue for his fantastic stories Arzach (which used no words at all) and The Airtight Garage. Moebius famously teamed up with Alexander Jodorowsky for the L’Incal series as well as the much-lamented movie adaptation of Frank Herbert’s Dune, but it never came to pass.

In 1993 a company called Comic Images put out a gorgeous series called “Moebius Collector Cards,” of which there were about 100. We’ve selected a few for you below, but you can see the entire set at catawiki.
