"Friendlier Than He Looks" by Richard Corben, the "Moebius" from across the pond. (with a small intro)

https://www.lambiek.net/artists/c/corben.htm

Corben’s work is singular in its humanity. He works with towering technical skill… the wondrous thing of it all is that underneath all that technical tour-de-force is the sound of a beating heart. –Will Eisner

Richard Corben stands among us like an extraterrestrial peak. He has sat in his throne for a long time, above the moving and multi-coloured field of world comics, like an effigy of the leader, a strange monolith, a sublime visitor, a solitary enigma. –Jean Giraud

https://comicvine.gamespot.com/richard-corben/4040-1350/

Corben’s Den saga and other stories were published in Giraud’s (i.e. Moebius’) “Métal Hurlant” magazine, so have been well-known to Euro audiences for half a century or more. As for the piece above, actually I believe it’s called “Cosmic Monster,” but I’m not 100%. It was used for various covers and posters, such as this Creepy horror / sci-fi collection. Corben used to do stories for that American anthology magazine, so it was a perfect choice, there.
