Description

A French collection of Moebius comic stories from his Métal Hurlant period. None of these stories are currently in print in English.

Escale sur Pharagonescia is a collection of seven comic stories from 1974 to 1980 including: Shore Leave on Pharagonesia, Absoluten Calfeutrail, White Nightmare, Apple Pie, and Rock City. It was published in English in 1988 as Moebius 6: Pharagonesia & Other Strange Stories.

Le Bandard Fou is a 48-page story, the first full-length "Moebius" story.

From Moebius Odyssey:

Emboldened by the creative direction of "La Déviation" drawn a year earlier, Jean Giraud then embarked on making a longer story in that style that would also be the first official “Moebius" full length comic book.

Le Bandard Fou begins with the titular horny character waking up with a sizeable morning erection only to soon discover of his male member's refusal to subside and thus hilarity ensues as we follow the protagonist's various misadventures to avoid being captured by the ruthless Syldanian authorities who have outlawed any erections out of the breeding season.

The format of Le Bandard Fou is split into 2 separate sections: on the pages on the left side of the book there is a series of surreal full page drawings and on the right is the main story of Le Bandard Fou.

*****

Marvel declined to publish it due to its overt nudity and sexual content. It was published in English in 1990 by Dark Horse as Moebius 0: The Horny Goof.
