“Every worthwhile artist has their Moebius phase,” according to a theory.
I found the first pic in a blog, and the rest of the story in Heavy Metal magazine #267, from January 2014. Here she be:

I’d never heard of this Italian artist before, but am loving his art (and yes, he has his own style as well). There’s a bit more info on him over at Lambiek.
Great style and story, although I’m a little confused by the ending. What did she tell him and why does it show her leaving as the last panel?
He deserves to be left there, but I don’t think it was a very strong panel to end on, although it was very cool visually.
I was cracking up with the three panel spread of him shooting like an idiot after being frightened by the flower, hahaha.
Thanks for sharing
What did she tell him and why does it show her leaving as the last panel?
Seems to me that she used her influence with the alien / plant to get him released, but as a penalty, he was converted to a strange ibis-type bird. Or something like that.
I was wondering about those blonde tufts.
That makes sense, thanks. He’ll do better as an ibis.
He’ll do better as an ibis.
Lol, truth.
Btw, note his pink headband in addition to the blond tufts.Oh I noted it’s similarity to the vine ribbons holding him in captivity but hadn’t realized that was his bandana! Thanks
This is really cool!
Nice
Link is dead? :(
It’s still working fine on my WinX & Chrome setup.
You can also try it without the leading protocol code, i.e.:
Or maybe different browser, incognito mode, desktop vs. phone approach?
Yeah, seems to have been an issue with the eternity in app browser.
Fun comic, thx for sharing. Didn’t fully get the final panel, but it’s not always necessary to fully get these style of comics.
Haha, yeah, it definitely took a leap on the last panel.
Seems to me that she used her influence with the alien / plant to get him released, but as a penalty, he was converted to a strange ibis-type bird. Or something like that. Anyway, glad you liked!
