“BD” refers to Franco-Belgian comics, but let's open things up to include ALL Euro comics and GN's. Euro-style work from around the world is also welcome!

* BD = "Bandes dessinées"
* BDT = Bedetheque
* GN = graphic novel
* LBK = Lambiek
* LC = "Ligne claire"

The style is called Ligne claire and comes from Franco-Belgian comic art tradition also known as Bandes dessinée. However, the style of Mœbius is particularly unique. Many see him as the absolute master of this style and most agree that no other artist comes even close to him. Mœbius influenced not just comic art but the aesthetics of the whole sci-fi genre, especially movies. Scroll through our community to find more of his outstanding work.
