Ow. That man was visionary and someone that the comic aficionados of my generation lionized. I was transported by his Taarna segment in Heavy Metal. Just watching her fly past those giant skeletons with buildings and structures inside them demonstrated how far-reaching his vision was. Bummer.

He's one of my all-time favorite SF/fantasy illustrator, I prefer him over Frazetta. His design sense is just incredible. The look of Metal Hurlant is largely indebted to him.
You can see his work in a lot of movies- Tron, Alien, The Fifth Element, The Abyss...he also did some amazing work for the unproduced DeLaurentis/Jodorowksy Dune. He did a totally androgynous Feyd Rautha that was just awesome.
Would that board game illustrators imitated Moebius rather than Larry Elmore, Anime, and Magic Cards...

I didn't even realize this could really be in question.
