Jean Giraud "Moebius" - La Faune de Mars (FR)

About La Faune de Mars

Mœbius, known for his mischievousness, exercises his absurd and silly humor in this illustrated book full of unknown, complicated and strange shapes. The creatures seem to put on a show in the landscape of the famous Désert B, where irony and misappropriation are kings. Not so hidden in a few drawings, characters like Le Major, Stel and Atan (from the Monde d'Edena) or even Mœbius himself can be spotted.

This edition features a colored booklet, an interview between Hervé Leguyader and Mœbius, as well as side notes from Le Major.

About Mœbius

Jean Giraud, alias Moebius or Gir, is a legendary comic book author and illustrator. After studying applied arts in Paris, he became the assistant to Joseph Gillain, known as Jijé. Under the pseudonym Mœbius, he went on to create various projects focused on humor, fantasy, and science fiction. His drawings caught the attention of major film directors, with whom he collaborated on several films: Ridley Scott's Alien (costumes), René Laloux's Les Maîtres du temps (storyboard), Steven Lisberger's Tron (costumes), James Cameron's Abyss (underwater creatures) and Luc Besson's The Fifth Element.

In 1997, Jean Giraud founded his own publishing house with his wife Isabelle, Mœbius Production-Stardom. Together, they published Inside Mœbius, La Faune de Mars and Le Major , among others. In 2017, their two children, Raphael and Nausicaä Giraud, joined the company.
