As the comics community continues to mourn the loss of Joe Kubert and the recent passing of Jean Giraud, a.k.a Moebius, a video from the early 1970s has surfaced, showing the two legends in a studio drawing together. Joined by Neal Adams, the three artists appear on the French show Tac au Tac in 1972, and take turns approaching a large canvas and drawing, discussing art, and admiring the talent of

Among the great out-of-print art books of the world is Blade Runner Sketchbook, collecting original production artwork from what is perhaps best designed science fiction film ever. Originally published by Blue Dolphin Enterprises in 1982, the book includes material by Blade Runner conceptual designer Syd Mead as well as Mentor Huebner, Charles Knode, Michael Kaplan and director Ridley Scott himsel

In the 1980s, director Pascal Blais hoped to adapt the spectacular sci-fi comic The Incal by Moebius and Alejandro Jodoswsky into an animated movie, and created a trailer with the help of several artists who had worked on the Heavy Metal movie...

Among the most ubiquitous of Moebius' many, many famous science fiction illustrations is "The Starwatcher," a hypnotically beautiful piece that, in the simplest terms, depicts a pretty girl sitting on a bench. Naturally, the painting by Moebius (aka Jean Giraud) includes much more, like an otherworldly setting, dramatic architecture, sci-fi accoutrements, a mysterious box and a glowing o
