Icaro, Vol. 1 by Jirō Taniguchi, Mœbius
2.0
I just heard about Moebius (that is, Jean Giraud) the other day, and have been trying (and failing, it seems!) to get a hold of his actual work since. Dude, EVERYthing on Amazon is like $200+ and out of print. Wtf?
Anyway, this is apparently only written by Moebius, not actually drawn by him. And it's just... meh. A kind of vaguely eroticized cyberpunk tale about a boy with very ripply abs and the ability to fly, some random girl he's keen on, and various evil scientists. Oh yes, and people with black eyes who can self-explode if they think really hard.
This is part 1 of a two-part series, and it's a very slow, simple beginning. Boy can fly. Stuff about exploding people. Boy escapes. Scientists mad. The end.
