Le Scarabée

Emerging from the pages of Une Aventure de l'Araignée in 1977, Le Scarabée is a Bronze Age figure published by Editions Lug — the beloved French imprint that brought Marvel's world to francophone readers across more than four decades. Rooted in the creative vision of Stan Lee and Steve Ditko, this character's catalog journey winds through Strange and Ombrax-Saga, sharing adventures alongside the likes of Peter Parker, Iron Man, Tony Stark, and Captain Marvel. With 21 appearances spanning all the way to 2020 and at least one collector-recognized key issue to their name, Le Scarabée is a fascinating piece of Franco-Belgian comics history — a character whose longevity speaks to the enduring passion of French Marvel readership.
