Dark Horse To Release Moebius’ ‘The Depressed Hunter’ In English For The First Time

Here’s one Moebius strip you’ll want to get your hands on. As part of their Moebius Library edition line, Dark Horse will release The Depressed Hunter in English for the first time.

Written and drawn by Jean “Moebius” Giraud, the book is translated by Diana Schutz and lettered by Adam Pruett. Here’s the official synopsis, per Dark Horse:

In this graphic novel prequel to The Major, Mœbius’s Major Grubert finds himself attempting to chase away the blues, but gets caught up into a surreal adventure. Taking a vacation to the Airtight Garage to clear his mind, Grubert walks straight into an assassination plot: his own! As the Major goes undercover, the late, great French master cartoonist Mœbius delivers The Depressed Hunter, taking readers into the intricate world of the Major’s dreams—and nightmares!—with the lush, exquisite pen-and-ink work for which the author is best known. This is another intensely psychedelic adventure that only Mœbius could take us on!

Moebius Library: The Depressed Hunter runs 88 pages, costs $24.99, and will hit comic book stores on June 10, 2026. You can check out the full cover below.
