Could Fantasio have turned into a thief?
A meaningless little spat is keeping Spirou and Fantasio apart that day, when the young bellboy sees his friend in the company of a mysterious neighbour. Shortly afterward, a jewellery shop is robbed, and the owner identifies Fantasio, who has come to cover the event for his newspaper, as his aggressor. When the very next day a priceless Egyptian mask is stolen live on TV by ... Fantasio, Spirou is left with little choice but to investigate …
Key Points:
Andre Franquin took the Spirou and Fantasio reins after the end of the Second World War, from the hands of Jije. For 20 years Franquin continued to create the series' mythology until the era of Will, Jean Roba and then Jean-Claude Fournier.
A Classic Franco-Belgian Series as Popular as Asterix and Tintin
'The gags fly at such a pace that you'll do well rereading the book and scanning each picture for off-the-cuff eyeball kicks' [JT Lindroos on Spirou & Fantasio in New York, FA The Comiczine].
'Easily accessible to readers of all ages and drawn with all the beguiling style and seductive but wholesome élan which makes Asterix, Lucky Luke, The Bluecoats and Iznogoud so compelling, this is a true and enduring landmark tale from a long line of superb exploits, certain to be as much a household name as those series ...' [Win Wiacek, Now Hear This!]
