The Incal
notes
the art and wild story telling of the world of edena, but centered on a man instead of a planet.
the back of the book had a few quotes and one of them made me feel heard. they said something to the effect of: "i fell in love with the art of moebius and proceeded to lookup everything they've ever made."
amen
