He’ll be missed! I (slowly) read French comics as a way to improve my lousy French (and because I love them), and I’m glad that there’s still such a massive pile of Valerian comics waiting for me to read them.
Mezieres and Mobius both contributed to the production design of The Fifth Element, and if you can get hold of a version with the DVD extras there’s a really great interview with the two artists. It’s very clear that they’re old friends, and it’s a pleasure to watch them together.
