J.D. Foster is an Earthman on shore leave in the spaceport city of Pharagonesia. It's a crazy day in the city, as the locals are celebrating Mutation Day. And it's a crazy day for J. D. Foster, as he's about to experience his first glass of "koks"! Earthmen and koks, they don't mix too well, with the result being more than a little . . . messy. "Shore Leave on Pharagonesia" is just one of the peculiar stories you'll find in Moebius' The Exotics, a collection of the French cartoonists more unusual science-fiction works. Featuring such notable stories as the long-out-of-print "The Horny Goof," the prequel to The Airtight Garage and The Man from the Ciguri, this 80-page classic travels the wondrous pathways that could only have been created by the legendary Moebius. This volume also includes story notes by Moebius.

Science Fiction shorts reprinted + historical notes,
By A Customer
This review is from: The Exotics (Paperback)
This paperback, for those who don't know, reprints ( in color ) "Pharagonesia", "The Horny Goof" & some other sci-fi short stories by the famed french "comic book" artist, Jean "Moebius" Giraud. If you want to know the works of an aknowleged master and learn about an important chapter of the history in comics, this book is a must. The only mistake made on this paperback is that it's small-sized; the panels would look much better printed on their original sizes.
