If this was produced after Matrix Revolutions, people would have accused Moebius of ripping off Neo’s encounter with the Architect. As it stands, Moebius produced this scene decades earlier. It’s really crazy how this kind of thing occasionally shows up in various forms of pop culture over the years. I love the speed lines in the last panel.
