i can't believe Moebius was alive during my lifetime and I didn't even know he existed until a few years ago. RIP Legend. Forever my favorite illustrator and so inspiring.
We all saw the fifth element, that was so totally moebius, even the action of the characters, it looked like the Incal
MOEBIUS WAS THE NUMBER ONE. Nobody like him.
@@JSTNtheWZRD I saw it in the cinema without knowing anything about it except Bruce Willis SciFi. I straight away was thinking where did this come from? Hollywood must have actually given someone creative control for once and it must be influenced by something I'd missed.
@@steveanton763 He did the whole film on paper probably and I think also that they modeled it after his style because of how popular he was in Europe, but they mention him once in the credits for a second. Hollyweird.....
Fifth Element took from the Incal. The Matrix took from the Invisibles. At least the former paid Moebius. The Wachowskis ripped off Grant Morrison and got away with it.
I'm 72 now and was in my 20's when HM came out here in the US. Needles to say I bought every issue. Moebius elevated the comic genre from soap-opera conflicts to philosophical questions set amidst crumbling yet vibrant backdrops. Despite interactions the protagonist dwells within his own mind..as do we all. I Salute this fine mind whose work has enriched my life.
Did you ever buy any moebius shirts back in the day?
@@Danchodan47 hi Daniel.. I don't recall Moebius t-shirts being available in the 70s.
O come on Mr. Moon, night is calm, mind silent , no one particular ,all Or nothing at all, let me listen laying down, sinking more ,dissolving, being moonlight here and there, in and around everything.
Only a true Frenchman can draw a multipage spread while smoking a cigarette
+RoboBoddicker And eat a baguette with his left hand.
Lol, true
Only English man can have such a narrow and stereotypical point of view . Did you see the paradox ? I am French .
yes, I have a little overreacted
im french but this guy got no sense of humor that's terrible
"I did nothing for a whole year. It was fabulous" -Moebius
@Hal Jordan Thanks for the compliment... I feel culturally enriched.
@Hal Jordan Dickhead lol, go back to your cave
Hal Jordan lazy bastards gave you Camembert, baguette, wine and croissant. Go get your Wendy’s shitery.
@Hal Jordan Yes that's why we have/had the best painters/drawners/writers/philosophes, why we had revolution, art revolution, les lumières, la nouvelle vague, human rights... Because we are able to stop doing things to start thinking about them. And all around the world, people, artists who know and need that came in France. Airhead like you cant understand, it's not your fault. To finish, we fought against Italy, Spain, England, Germany for centuries at 2vs1 or more and we are still here.

my god its a xenoblade chronicles 3 reference!!!!?!!!!! 😱😱😱
There is a video on youtube where Hayao Miyazaki embarrassingly admitted being so influenced by Moebius' works that it showed up in Nasicaa (confirming what many had noticed the similarities between the movie and Moebius's works) ..
Moebius' style and ideas are so incomparable even great directors like Miyazaki and Ridley Scott look to him for inspirations ..
A lot of great artist tend to look at others for inspiration and shapes their influence.
It's no secret that a lot of mangakas were fascinated by Moebius work. This whole mix of organic and technology can be found in things like Akira, Ghost in the Shell, Evangelion, Gunnm... The whole dark sci-fi stuff of the 70s and 80s with Alien, Blade Runner, and Moebius work deeply influenced Japanese artists. To Miyazaki's credit, he invented a much more optimistic atmosphere, poetic and childish, innocent, rather than tortured, colorful and sexual which was Moebius' style. Miyazaki is deep, but cute, dreamy. It's the optimistic nation that followed the horrors of WW2. Moebius seems like a much more disturbed individual, with flaws and dark thoughts, a bit like William Burroughs, without the drugs. Miyazaki is pure and childlike, he only took Moebius as an inspiration.
+Nicolas Bertin
I agree that Moebius is comparatively more adult-themed and frequently suggests sophisticated ethereal thoughtfulness (I think he dabbled in buddhism?) where Miyazaki alludes to a more innocent view of the world .. There is no shame in Miyazaki admitting to taking sometings from Moebius because all artists find inspirations from other artists and external sources. .. any artist who says he is completely original is simply lying out of pure unfounded arrogance ..
"good artist copy, great artists steal"
+slitor
umm... so ?
I can still pick any moebius picture and still get totally lost in the details… and I've seen them over and over again. He was just so good.Epic.
Even the "simple" stuff has depths you discover with each viewing.
You really can look at so much of his work over & over again. Finding something new each time.
No spoiler warning for Xenoblade 3 🙄
Lol Love What Mike Mignola said "If you love my work why don't you just print my work" XD
Because they make their but off their intellectual property. That's why the big two have been sued by Siegel and Shuster, and Kirby, Steve Gerber, peter b. Gillis, etc. They want to use you up and move on...
He was so bitter! You can make great things no matter the medium. Very disappointed of Mignola.
@@vagabundo1600 but you cant be fully fulfilled and reach your potential if you are doing others people stuff.
@@vagabundo1600 Sure, you can make great things, but creators deserve to be PAID for their work and have control over it. Mignola is talking about control, respect and being fairly compensated.
The team that put this documentary together did a fantastic job
Me and my team did the opening sequence, so thanks for the kind words!
Bart Simpson is one of the producers 0:13
and a member of Kraftwerk composing the music this is the best documentary ever !
@@HenryDeMedina Aye caramba!
Thank you so much for uploading this. It's insane to think about how much of a cultural impact this man had by simply drawing lines.
By simply making art, you mean ;)
I cannot imagine Nausicaa without Jean, I cannot imagine Nausicaa, Blade Runner, Akira or Alien either to be honest. What a wonderful guy. Such an amazing designer/ creator. You made such a footprint on me, especially in my darkest moments on an hospital bed 22 years ago. It's maybe because I have spent a good chunk of my life by the waves and the Atlantic but I love the Silver Surfer. Such a unique take on super heroes.
Love you sir, rest in peace.
Riveting documentary. I particularly liked the Metal Hurlant and Alien segments. I did find it a bit odd that near the end Moebius was summarized as so enigmatic and almost akin to absentminded savant (particularly by Jodorowsky), when in fact Moebius comes off as rather sound and grounded in all of his comments.
@@rudedragens7397 That's like something Don Trump would say if you quit on him.
Being sound and grounded doesn't mean he knows how to deepen his relationships. What I read from what he said about his feelings of abandonment from his father, and loneliness from his mother, he has some kind of hyper independence response to trauma, which could also explain the need to show himself as an egocentric/unreachable person as a defense.
I met Jean in 1986 and he signed several pieces of his work for me. He's one of the nicest people I've met.
"Superman makes me vomit, Batman and all that. That whole EMPIRE, this religion... It is so important that superheroes suffer... I don´t give a DAMN, I SHIT on the United States." xD
HAHAHAHAHA Jodorowsky es un camarada más, como muchos artistas chilenos.
***** I think he meant because of the drawing of the western US. Nevada, Arizona, etc...
Djeff Houle and honestly I figured as much as well. but that only serves to further demonstrate how profoundly ignorant that stan lee is. does he not know where half those cowboys came from? (hint - Europe) he is surely old enough to know about the spaghetti western. and also, I just wanted to take the opportunity to express how low I think of stan's work. it is truly meant for children.
***** Djeff Houle I guess his remark was just to flatter Giraud, which in the end we can all agree with
+paragshah2112 Take a deep breathe. Have a poop and a cigarette. It was a compliment you paranoid dolt
Xenoblade 3: the documentary
The Long Tomorrow was a game changer. Short comic but great masterpiece. Thanks Moebius, you are part of us all now. You achieved inmortality my friend.
Agreed...
I was obsessed with the underground city, shapeshifting woman, quiver shivs,etc...
It came out in Heavy Metal mag when I was around 13 and I wasn’t allowed to own those...
Hahahaha
Helped to create Druuna... I advise you to read it, fantastic!
Morbius
its moebin time
So Jodorowsky's failed Dune became Alien. Then he had a hand in Blade Runner, Metal Hurlant/Heavy Metal, Marvel comics, what a great artistic reach.
Jodorowskys failed Dune became Alien, The fifth element, David Lynchs Dune and so so so many other films too..
Incorrect perspective. "Jodorowsky's Dune" (no failed), became comics: Metabarons, La Incal, which were all borrowed by creators of Alien, Blade Runner, Fifth Element. Metal Hurlant was Moebius's thing. Moebius inspired comics Jodorowsky inspired movies. Although yes if you include the "Grey Area" factor those two creators were the catalyst for what we have today.
ruclips.net/video/jg4OCeSTL08/видео.html
not really... just look up the documentary about it (jodorowsky's dune)
The Jabba the Hutt Barón Harkonnen connection
It's so Amazing, as a young man, "I shit on America" would have driven me insane with rage, as a ancient man I say, "Wow, he understands the destruction of Artistic thought which American Hollywood breathes!"
I love America for it's freedom, but I warily watch every new product seeing the terrible text written in between the photos which crushes the life of all Humanity,,,
Even the freedoms a bit of a lie. It's not even the most free country
I really laugh at that scene in Crimson Tide where a fight breaks out between two sailors, about who drew the best Silver Surfer - Jack "King" Kirby, or Moebius. Denzel Washington breaks up the fracas, and asks what the hell was the problem. Denzel's character says, "Anyone who has who knows anything about comic books knows the Jack Kirby Silver Surfer is the only true Silver Surfer!"
I think that line was probably (duh) written by Quentin Tarantino, as he did a script polish on the whole film.
Hear that Noah?
Jean Moebius Giraud was actually a great master in drawing and comic book art. First off he was really great in drawing whatever things he had to, great knowledge of drawing , history of art and history of comic books so that he could also study the art of other great comic books masters which are classics, like Alex Raymond, Milton Caniff, Hal Foster, Winsor Mc Cay, Herriman, and many others.
Giraud was great technically and alot of great art you can find also in his Blueberry western series. They are so good it seems to read a John Ford or Sergio Leone or Sam Peckimpah movie on paper.
From that and the interest in science fiction, Maya art, and many other references, comes Moebius.
Moebius is all what the work as Gir cannot be, that is to say, alot of experimentation, both in style and things he drew, dream, imagination, surrealism, in one word freedom he couldn't have while doing more classic western strips.
The great thing about Moebius is great technical skills coupled together with great imagination, this is what makes an actually complete artist.
Probably my fave youtube video ever... 7th time watching : ) If heaven is half as good as his imagination he'll be in a happy place right now
Recently just discovered this amazing man Moebius and I am so pleasantly surprised that he has been a part of my whole life with all my favorites such as the fifth element, alien, dune, etc. As an aspiring artist looking towards to to do comics Moebius is truly one of the masters I look up to.
I feel vindicated. When I first saw Heavy Metal magazine, I realized how childish most American comics were, as far as the content of most. I was almost immediately uninterested in the superhero genre too. And through some searching, I realized there were some other American mags with a little more adult minded stories and art. Epic and Creepy were sometimes great in both the art and writing. Long live your art and memory Moebius.
Heavy Metal in 1977 was when I was first introduced to Moebius. The Air Tight Garage is still one of my favorites.
Few natives Americans got some talent as well , they are easy to remember : Gilbert Shelton for his " fabulous furry freaks broters " , and R. Crumb , with Mr Natural .
It’s funny you mention Epic because ironically it was an imprint of Marvel comics
It's so infuriating how comics are so associated with two companies who s work these days is totally disposed.
It drives me crazy that they use the horribly recoloured version of The Incal for the photographs.
+banchtants You can tell the lack of care those hacks put in, also by the shitty gradient on the title on the cover and the many typos in the commentary and biographies of people involved in the updated version. Ironically, the typos in the first issue are most present when the dickhead is praising the new coloring. It really shows a lack of care to not catch typos in 1 or 2 pages of writing. Look to that loser as the culprit.
I think The Incal suffers from not being colored by Moebius himself .. its a lot lot less impressive than the brilliant recently republished US english version of The WOrld Of Edena, which is inked AND COLORED by Moebius himself ..
The coloring of Yves Chaland (1st Incal) / Isabelle Beaumenay-Joannet (2-5?) was pretty good. It's less "artistic" than Edena, but it was probably what a younger, speedier Giraud wanted. But Humanoides did a frankly toxic job with computers afterwards. Apparently it was Frank Beltran who dunnit. Here is a blogpost I found: joglikescomics.blogspot.com/2009/04/desastre-hurlant-t4-is-man-good.html
Heyyyyy is that true???? The original Incal was printed in B/W ????? if so, then it totally makes sense to me. When I a was a kid there was this moebius exhibit in the Museo de bellas artes and was hugely impressed by the art and really hated when I saw the printed version of the Incal with those horrible colors (same happened with the akira US version)
If you're referring to the digital painting, it's an abomination, I agree.
For me the Moebius-Stan Lee's "Silver Surfer" is a remarkable comic in US industry, very underrated, the rest of Marvel is just like a "soap opera" with a lot of cliché. Jodorowsky explained it well!!
Moebius documentary followed by Tron, a good night's viewing.
0:12 Producer Bart Simpson??
he's going places
AY CARAMBA!!
This explains a lot
Doh..!
Don't have a cow, man!
Jodo at 41:37 speaks some hilarious truths
Jodorowsky is great
+John Smith yep man, I am with the pair of you :)
Heh, as a DC guy I feel a bit of insulted...
But DC is great in facing their heroes with their own frailty.
Was that what he meant? (I mean they die and come back again so often)
Agreed
@Mourning Star calm down.
I am just trying to return to doing comics, and I've blown the last few weeks trying to get back into the whole mainstream, superhero idiom. And I'm stinking up my sketchbooks. Watching this has brought back to me how important it is to do what you love, and make that your life, and not try to shoehorn yourself into whatever "sells." Considering the current state of comics, I might as well do what I want, and find a way to help the "right" audience find it. Thank you for this post!
His work was very, very French.
I really think he's my all time favorite!
Nah. He was more french than the French. Still French though, just more so, not only conceptually but also deliberately, and he knew it.
Let's imagine something written by Alan Moore with the art of Moebius...
+Felipe M why did that never happen ;(
+wood fox Fucking epic right?
wood fox because moore is a douchenozzle
Brits and French work together only when they both fear Germans...😅
i think the attributions 'comic strip illustrator' and 'author' only are a bit degrading for the legend that mobieus was/is. He was also a futurist, engineer & philosopher in essence...
Giraud talks about Mexico and the desert (7:20), but he skips his life changing experience with mushrooms.
«Moebius kept his hallucinogens consumption during the 70s, which coincidentally were the most experimental years of his career. He also was a marihuana smoker his entire life. He never denied this consumption. He recognised that psychoactive drugs were an evident an desirable influence for his artwork. Titles as "The Hermetic Garage", “The Incal" (made hand by hand with Jodorowsky) or "Arzak" were remarkably influenced by the effects of different substances. In fact, these works derived from his psychedelic trips began to be his most recognizable works.»
haha, good to know
I don't think that's what was being said at all. He's relating the fact that Moebius' drug use had a dramatic impact on him and his art. Nobody said an artist needs drugs to be great.
It looks to me as if someone has edited that part out of the section on Mexico. I think the section where Moebius started following some mystic named Appel-Guery.
perhaps he mentioned it but the beeb cut it out. you never know what's on the editing room floor.
amazing documentary, fantastic, and great music by legendary Kraftwerk member Karl Bartos
I love kraftwerk, but the music drove me nuts.
I thought it sounded familliar.. love it.
According to Lewis Trondheim Moebius used to make compliments to cartoonists so that they would feel happy about their work. The goal was for them to not go and try to out-do him.
I think they should do something similiar with Druillet,he would absolutely deserve it
I misspelled the morbius movie and clicked on this
Moebius was a genius.
An understatement at best. There was and is just no one like him. You almost have to invent a wholly new classification for Moebius.
Moebius’ art is enchanting
I wish he had the opportunity to make his own films like Miyazaki had, and not just work on someone else's ideas.
I love how Giger doesn't know what a pterodactyl is.
Maybe because that wasn’t really what it was.
In _The Incal_ , you see similar birds called “concrete seagulls”.
@Finn Matthews Its not a pterodactyl. If you look at the creature from a frontal/side view, you will see it looks nothing like a pterodactyl.
@@gabrielp9646 actually it looks entirely based on a pterodactyl.
"It is very good ! How can it be drawed by a french artist"
Seriously, Stan Lee ?
Are you so stuck in stereotypes ? Do you know the place of France in History of arts ?
I had the same reaction but i think he was referring to a frenchman drawing convincing american western with blueberry, so something that stan lee thought would be culturally foreign for a frenchman.
Fantastic documentary! Only regret is I didnt hear more about L'Incal, from both Jodorovsky & Moebius.
I've never seen anyone do distance so correctly, from buildings to people, his drawings had the same perfect angles and proportions as a photograph.
You’re absolutely right! Maybe that’s one of the 100 reasons I like his art
my entire childhood was filled with Moebius artwork
the childhood of most today still have moebius but they don t even know 😀
I wish mine was, but I didn’t read many comics sadly, I want to start now :))
@@jh5kl i also discovered him nww, as an artist I'm blown away with his workk
dang my dude Jodo really disliked Stan Lee, didn't he?
0:15 -> Wait... This documentary was produced by Bart Simpson? 👀
I love his art, and I'm happy to learn how cool and nice a guy he was.
Damn right, Jodorowsky put my thoughts about Marvel and DC into very honest words. All their shit is blatantly stupid save for two or three things. It's always the same formula over and over. I wonder how the artists working there must feel... having to draw and redraw a character which is not even theirs only because that's what the majority of the public crave and it's the safe bet. It would be like a professional musician playing covers only hahaha
@Terry Tracy bringing up wars in a convo about comic and art? Alrighty buddy
@Terry Tracy LOL, that's totally off-topic. Winning wars is one thing, having shitty pop-culture is another. But, on the other hand, not all of it is shitty - only the mainsteam part. You've got plenty of good artists and a bunch of good titles in comic-book department.
To play devils advocate a lot of people who work for the big 2 genuinely care about these characters and don’t care about owning them they only want to use them to tell great stories and many have broken the formula and many more in the future. Look no further then Immortal Hulk , Silver Surfer Black , X-Men Grand Design , Watchmen , etc. to name but a few of really talented writers and artists creating noteworthy comics in America.
Hal Jordan Who exactly are you talking about? Giraud or Jodorowsky? Giraud said nothing bad about US comics. And he didn’t “copy” anyone. He had his inspiration like every other artist, but he was a product of the European nouveau réalisme movement, not American pop culture. And while I respect many American artists, the US has never produced one that can match Giraud’s brilliance.
Terry Tracy And which country would that be? Chile? Cause that’s where he’s from. And since you’re bringing up wars (like a stereotypical angry American would), let’s get technical: The major forces driving home victory against the Germans in Europe was the British in WWI and the Russians in WWII. The US was always playing second fiddle. (Or in the spirit of the content matter in this documentary; being the sidekick.)
Amazing doc ! I freshly discovered this guy and he is transporting me to other worlds.. Tho the subtitles were really misleanding. As a native french, I can tell that they dumbed down some very interesting points.
Btw, if you are into french comic, enki bilal, who is interviewed during this doc is nowaday, one of the biggest in the game. His recent serie "Bug" is absolutly outstanding and charming.
Rust Cohle oh yeah didn't think bout that.. It's still worth it to buy it just for the draws lol
What a shame that the use the horrible US recoloring of Incal.
no comment about 240p.
So people are really here for content
I watch this at least once a month. I don't know french but I know exactly where the documentary is at just by listening to auditory cues while I'm drawing on my desk.
Beautiful. Thanks for posting. Always loved Moebius, and just recently discovered his work as Jean Giraud on "Blueberry." The man was a genius of drawing. Thanks Moebius for the dream of the pure artist!
In the US Jean Giraud is most known for his Moebius work. But his European audience of a certain age is probably most familiar with his art on the Lt. Blueberry strip serialized in the comic anthology “Pilote”. Sometimes I don't know which of his work I love more. I love the elegant, beautifully drawn work of his Moebius style, but it's his use of light and shadow in Blueberry, the gritty quality to his vision of the western genre and his breathtaking vistas of the American Southwest that I find absolutely thrilling (I suspect he was most influenced by Sergio Leoni’s films). Here’s the test: If I were offered any page of his original art, I think I would probably take a Lt. Blueberry page.
Same here.
R.i.p one of the very few gods of art Moebius
They didn't go into Edena, which is a shame, I really wanted to hear more about that.
I met him in NYC at Comicon in the 90's, what an honor!🙏 My absolute favorite graphic artist ever.
42:30 Gotta love the balls on Alexandro "I shit on the United States" Jodorovsky lmao.
I COULDN'T STOP MYSELF and stopped the video that it just not finish yet.. THIS IS AMAZING JOB .. l don't know how can l explain or express myself or my ideas about this documentary and containing itself .. The GODs of illustration ,the GOD s of drawing , the GODs of fantastic art or gods of new era .. Well yes i'm very excited and satisfied with this doc. movie . Especially viewing point of the artists that starting point from a page to the huge industry of comicbook . Also Jodorowsky's critics is very very valuable for this industry . He can be unfair and can fearless to this "industry shit" paradox . As says Mike Mignola " we love your work but we will fix it " Please my holly f***ng industry god please don't fix that art and artists .
May be you know or not about the " Jodorowsky's " The Dune " and what that hell happened to him and his great project . And how the Aliens , Star Wars or "fixed " The Dune published . l called as a paradox this case cause l am really wonder that if with or without this industry can be possible these artists and their artworks as known / popular ..
And beside this bad sides there is an another great thing is the BBC l can honestly saying that at least l learn many things from them ..
Thank you ..thank you thank you Whole of the great Masters .. 🙏
He was very inspiring to me as a kid. Also, look it is drawing with traditional media. While forums argue which is better, Maya, 3ds Max, Blender etc etc, we still have traditional that can make amazing and humanistic work. As I always say traditional drawing is cutting edge!....
Bellissimo. Avevo visto la mostra alla fondazione Cartier di Parigi nel 2011, e avevo capito la profondità culturale che si manifesta nei suoi disegni. Sì è inaugurata in questi giorni una grande mostra a Napoli. Spero di poter andare a visitarla e rinnovare così le emozioni già provate.
George Lucas should give him a check to his family
+johnathan clark what did he steal ?
Tatooine’s sparse deserts littered with decaying technology, in the dirty-spaceship interiors of the Millennium Falcon, and in the Jedi’s robes and Han Solo’s scruffy attire. But most tellingly it is in the first panel of page eleven of Moebius 1975 strip The Long Tomorrow, where what looks almost exactly like an Imperial Probe Droid can be seen clearly in the background. The vertical cityscapes from that same story can also be seen to be a clear influence on the designs for Coruscant in the the Star Wars prequels.
www.tor.com/2012/03/12/moebius-the-visionarys-visionary/
johnathan clark your right ,he should, hes a damn billionaire and stole a lot of stuff
+valhalla homebound All fiction is derivative in some form. Same with Superman and Batman, parts of which where inspired by Zorro, Hercules, etc.
Even George Lucas thought that BattleStar Galactica stole designs from him. Someone probably sat him down and said "most fiction is derivative in some form, George, so chill out"!
I have been an admirer of Moebius' art for a very long time, but I didn't know much about him other then he was French lol. Enlightening! I enjoyed this documentary very much.
I feel like I contributed to 30% of the views on this video since I basically watch this everyday for pure inspiration ❤😂
I love Moebius style, he is my favourite artist of all time, but I got to admit that the Incal new coloring was fucking terrible
just saw recolored version on web. its ugly as shit. bad idea. and its by humanoids, that was founded by moebius. disrespect and bad taste
He is criticizing the recolor, not the original artist.
I recently saw The Incal and the colors are NOT credited to Moebius but to some other artists, it shows ... does anyone know if the original copies were colored by Moebius ?
(The World of Edena is colored by Moebius and its absolutely brilliant...)
Nope, they were colored by a guy named
Yves Chaland
+Matthieu Bonnier
The Incal's colors are not done by Moebius since the beginning then ... its sad when I read some people criticising Moebius for it when its not really his fault ..
Combien je partage les vues de Jodorowsky sur Stan Lee et les industriels de la misérable philosophie USA über Alles ( superman ... et tous les super ploucs de la gonflette ) ! Tout les so called " super héros " du Marvel industrial emphatic american me provoquent une éruption de mauvais boutons . J' admire l'univers angélique dans lequel Giraud pu vivre sa collaboration avec Lee que j'ai toujours perçu comme un gros con hyper-nationaliste .
En France , la série " super Dupont " (Gottlieb je crois ) , apparue en réaction à cette école de gros ploucs des USA , avait allégé un peu la chose , mais n'a eu aucun ( aucun ) succès outre Atlantic of course où l' humour auto-dérision n'existe pas. . Jodo est plus direct , et, bien que à fond dans ses univers ( Incal ) , il a les pieds bien posés sur cette planète et il sait appeler "pourrave " ce qui sent le caca militariste .
Merci Mr Jodo , pour ces quelques mots qui manquaient dans le conte de fèe Giraud .
It's too bad Francois Truffaut didn't do a movie about Moebius. With his (Truffaut's) first hand knowledge of the loneliness of many creative people, plus growing up in difficult circumstances, he would have been the perfect director for a Moebius movie.
Dude this isn't Morbius? The clickbait......
There was no morbin
Moebius, not Morbius - whatever that is. It's only clickbait if your reading skills aren't up to snuff. No offense intended. 😐
...shiiiit, I can even see shades of Jim Woodring @ 3:17..is there no-one Moebius/Jean Giraud didn't influence?! I'm not sure Woodring has ever spoken of him as an influence but looking at Moeb's "desert period" comics it seems so fucking obvious, now.
Woah...Moebius ..
Artistic Existential.. spilling love, passion, truth and blood in every scribble of the pen..
My heart literally breaks as I breathe in his Expression of Life.
Each panel is perfection as high winds change the landscape
Shame about the annoying music overshadowing the story.
Loving the Bartos soundtrack to this docu!
Jodorowsky keepin' it real, man.... Keepin' it real.
Est ce qu'un jour Georges Lucas lui rendra Hommage ?
A brilliant star .His art changed me forever.
25:44 "So I did Alien".
As simple as that, Dan ;-)
As simple as that ...
I've been captivated by Moebius' artwork for decades. Whilst the man was yet amongst us, I purchased some signed prints and books, wishing only that I had purchased more. RIP Mr. Giraud
"Je me chie dans les Etats-Unis" ~ Jodorowsky. LOL!
He's bitter against Hollywood! Dissapoiting!
lets face it, the only thing jordo's dune would have been good for is midnight movies, along with the holy mountain. i hate to side with producers and distributers, but they were right. he cant manage time and money, so he he blew his budget. it wasnt just distributing, he was way overboard already in pre-production costs. i understand why no one wanted to throw more bones to him, i dont blame them, but still .... i would have loved to see his dune. it would have made lynch's version seem tame af lol.
@@vagabundo1600 No, it's much deeper than that for him. Of course I cannot replace him on his thoughts, but his birth, his environment, his origins, his career, as well as his films show it and explain it very well. How could an anti-fascist Chilean have admiration for the United States?
Great documentary; it shows really well the big difference between European and American Comic strips art; the former is "perpetual change" and the latter "don't change at all" ;)
You do realize that superhero comics aren't all of American comics. So there are plenty of change and innovation outside superhero comics in the US
+Devon Moreno Sure, and I meant DC and Marvel comics. I used to like superheroes when I was young but I didn't know they would live so long; even retired, and they keep on working, the same story with thousand types of salad dressing...
It's because the US had it's glory days in the 50s and 60s, so ever since there has been a longing to return to that, so people shy away from harsh progression and post modernism. Europe on the other hand, generally, had it's glorydays centuries ago with colonialism, now we are free to do what we want, kind of.

A master, a legend! ALL respect for Moebius!
I d like to point out how musical and beautiful french language sounds compared to english....and this being said by an italian perspective (as I am)
Such a great influence. Moebius is out of this world!
why are they looking for morbius
Have a look at this video about French comics and their connection to Star Wars: ruclips.net/video/dK8B10_oY5g/видео.html Moebius drawings are also featured.
Blueberry is amazing Magnifique I will come to tears cuz of this part right here because I very much love westerns as boy
This is THE thing that i am the most proud of as a french man although WE don't deserve that credibility. They were just ahead of everything.
the music really ruins the first ten minutes...
Can smb tell me the song name of around 11:00 ?
Music by Karl Bartos. Nice
His art has always been a great influence upon me, I am glad he has been on others also, the future needs it.
I learned of Moebius after seeing the Airtight Garage/Jerry Cornelius strip in Heavy Metal. I was in love with his work from then on.
Moebius and Moorcock? wow
John Smith awesome combo, right? ;)
I saw Moebius the first time at the Comic Saloon 2000 in Erlangen. Woah what a great day AND Giger was also exposed there.
It breaks my heart that my Dad never understood his talent. I have always tried to tell him that interesting art lies between the hand and the slap. He has that place in him, yet hides it. Anyways...
Giger's gone now. RIP Moebius and Giger.
ah, he makes me wanna draw in ink!!!!!
i like the definition of an illustrator by jodorowsky
