so sad to hear it

[Zarjazzer]

oh damn no! H e was a flipping genius. So many of his images are in my head.

[Buttonman]

Such a shame - he had a cracking slightly off kilter style that I loved. Had his Iron Man poster on my wall for years as a teen but this one is more appropriate today.

[Roger Godpleton]

A true original.

Wow, that's a sad one. Strangely enough, I've got a hardback Incal on it's way in the post! It shall be treasured.  Just got the dispatch email 7 minutes ago

While I love Moebius' own freaky stories and peerless design, it was his art on Fort Navajo and Lt. Blueberry that really did it for me.  I just couldn't get enough of that stuff when I was a kid.  Very sorry to hear of his passing, he always seemed so young.

A genuine genius. An artist that could make astonishing alien world's, their inhabitants and the sun, stone and dust of the old west and make each so utterly authentic and real. We're lucky to have had him.

[Heath C Ackley]

Like Franzetta, he was a true master of fantasy/science fiction/comic art.

[Spikes]

Shamefully i have very little of Moebius' work in my collection - which is something i must rectify.
A true original.
