Comic-book artist and designer Jean Giraud, known as Moebius, died overnight after a long illness.
Moebius was one of France’s leading cartoonists who also found fame in Japan and the United States.
He found fame when he created the Lieutenant Blueberry western character and adopted the pseudonym Moebius for illustrations of science fiction books and magazines.
As well as being published in top French magazines, he worked with Japanese manga artists and co-produced an adventure of US comic-book superhero The Silver Surfer with Stan Lee.
