Jean Giraud "Moebius" - 40 Days dans le Désert B (New Edition) (FR)

40 Days in the Desert B, New Edition!

At the dawn of the 21st century, Mœbius takes the decision to stop smoking weed ("se désherber" in French, which sounds like "désert B"). He sits down, similarly to Jesus long before him, in his beloved deserted and endless place and lets alluring images come to him. The visions experienced by the Archamane, overlapping with one another, are forged by Toto le totem, who acts as a narrative thread in this initiative journey.

Now in its sixth edition since its release in 1999, 40 Days dans le Désert B returns in a new format: larger and more luxurious! Immerse yourself once again in Mœbius’s graphic meditations—created through total improvisation—as you follow the chaotic thoughts of the impassive Archmage in a desert full of temptations and surprises.
