Week Nine: A Wide World of Comics

So this week I read Mobius's "Stories from Heavy Metal" and the first thing I thought about was Nausicaa. It has the the landscapes that go from dessert to forest and the same kind of strange riding birds with some variation. I wonder if with Miyazakior Mobius were influenced by each other's work? I had see Heavy Metal the movie and it just wasn't my kind of film. I didn't like all the gore and violence that the comic has also, but I love the color palette Mobius used in his work.
