F. de Felipe's 8-page intro to "Basil Headstone," curator and historian of "The Museum." In which our intrepid young reporter learns a rather lasting lesson regarding the sanity of his host. [mature]

Fernando de Felipe is a Spanish university professor, born in Zaragoza in 1965 . He also works as a film and television scriptwriter, in addition to having been a major Euro cartoonist of the late-80's & early-90's. [more]

I was originally exposed to the "Basil Headstone" series in 1996, through the American version of Métal hurlant magazine, i.e. "Heavy Metal." As far as I can tell, there were five total "Headstone" stories published to the American market, but there may have been more published to the Euro market, I believe through "Comix Internacional" (Toutain).

Personally, I felt this introduction story was one of the best of the stories, nicely illustrating what a complete lunatic the host was. This also reminded me a bit of UK genius' Pat Mills stuff, such as Requiem, Chevalier Vampire. Others have commented that in terms of the color palette, they're reminded of Richard Corben, Andrea Pazienza, and Matthias Schultheiss. (credit to u/ShiDiWen & u/LondonFroggy)
