Glorious sequel, ten years in the making ... plus the original in colour!
Riding his tyreless pterodactyl, Arzak tirelessly crisscrosses the mineral expanses of Jean Giraud's seemingly limitless imagination.
Soaring over overheated sands, exploring gorges and ravines, nothing escapes his watchful gaze, not the slightest rock lizard, not the patches of deadly grass... May the wolves and lambs of Tassili slit and devour each other in peace! Only one thing catches his watchful eye: the anomaly!
More than ten years after Arzak L'Arpenteur (2009) (Arzak the Surveyor), we have the sequel to this cosmic odyssey featuring the iconic hero with the pointy hat from Jean Giraud Mœbius...
This magnificent "Corpus Final" edition takes a unique form:
The first section of the book includes Arzak L'Arpenteur in its computer-colored version, however the text has all been separated from the images and printed on the left hand page, meaning we can finally enjoy the full scope of the artwork from this story. Full page by full page!
In the second section, we discover the beautiful black and white sequel, without words, drawn in Indian ink and reworked in places on the computer for the first time. These pages are highly reminiscent of some of Moebius's most highly charged line-drawn works such as 40 Days in the Desert B, Les jardins d'Eros (The Gardens of Eros), as well as some of the more full and intriguing Blueberry pages (albeit these would more than likely be brushed).
The last section of the book is compiled from archives and research, and visualizes the ending with its multiple plot threads and denouements. A collection of illustrations completes this 248-page work, with scenes or plates reworked by Mœbius and texts written by the author and his wife, Isabelle Giraud.
You will also find a previously unreleased bookmark included with each book.
Although the book is written in French, most of the art pages are printed without text, making this a surprisingly enjoyable book for those who do not have access to French language or translation software.
Many years of work and devotion have gone into producing this book which we hope you enjoy. Fully illustrated softcover edition with flaps.
