Spirou & Tintin are enthusiastic about a future job, Fantasio & the Capitain are killing time their way
Inktober 8 : Seccotine!
Seccotine is a character from the french comic book Spirou, a young journalist, single woman in a man’s world. I read it as a child, and at that time I guess I didn’t realize that I would experiment this when I would begin to work in animation! Gladly things are slowly changing here, but I’m keeping a sort of tenderness for this character
Redraw! Referenced material in the top right. (Click for higher quality)
Promised I’d draw him. Reference in left top corner.
Meer over de Robbedoes special ‘happy family’!

Been a while. I’ve been busy and unmotivated, but this is my 100th post! I wanted to do a comic for it! I was looking through Spirou hors-series stuff and I found this little comic by Nic. I don’t know if any of his comics with Raoul Cauvin are in English but I’m also not sure how much you’re missing. It’s a three comic arc, and they couldn’t use many of the characters I like if I’m not mistaken (notably Zorglub)
Maybe my thoughts on this would change if Spirou and the Diskies was finished hahaha!
This comic is short, but it was hard to translate. I have no idea what the mayor is saying ever. It sounds like nonsense to me. Like it’s real words I understand, but it’s political word salad! I tried my best!
The comic contains references to a few Franquin creations as well, including the Fantacopter, an invention Fantasio created in Spirou et les heriters/Spirou and the Heirs, and the Metamol/Metalsoft, a solution created by Count de Champignac in Le dictateur et le champignon/The Dictator and the Mushroom. I know the Fantacopter is used in other media (including Two of a Kind if you have seen that), but idk if the Metalsoft is.
I’ve updated my FAQ also. Please check it before you send any questions!
Anyway, please enjoy!
