HeroesCon 2011: Master of Screaming Metal: Tribute to Moebius

Exerpt from Ben Towle’s Blog:  We showed the documentary Moebius Redux, which was really well-done, although it certainly shied away from addressing some of the more troubling aspects of the artist’s later career. The real star of the panel, though, was Geof Darrow who had a seemingly-limitless well of hilarious anecdotes about Moebius. My friend and co-conspirator Craig Fischer wrapped up the presentation with a really fascinating discussion that made me (and others I’d guess) question the conventional narrative about the division between Jean Giraud and “Moebius.”

It was sad to hear that Moebius passed away. He, along with many other Metal Hurlant artists like Richard Corben, Phillipe Druillet, and Bernie Wrightson, was a main inspiration on my own work. However, like they say in the film The Sandlot- "Heroes get remembered, but legends never die."

I only just got around to listening to this great panel. One of my major regrets from Heroes Con was missing it in the first place. It is, of course, all the more poignant with the passing of the great man but is fascinating and enlivening even without that sad news. It's the little gems like this that keep me listening and supporting the Dollar Bin. Big thanks to you guys for recording this panel.
