Full title: Ballad against the enemies of France.

One of 18 illustrations he did for Ballades, a book of poems by François Villon. This immediately stood out to me because I’ve seen so little of Moebius’ watercolor & marker work like this.

In fact the pieces as a whole distinctly remind me of major arcana tarot cards. (hmm, I wonder if anyone’s had the chutzpah to try arranging such a deck out of his art?)

Same! Indeed, check out his “Wheel of Fortune” art, there.

Motherfucker, it’s PERFECT for Moeby!

Oh shit, I’m sorry, I’m sorry…

Pardon but what exactly do you mean?
