Éric

Éric made their debut in the pages of Spirou #761 in 1952, brought to life by the legendary André Franquin at the height of Belgian comics' Golden Age — a remarkable pedigree for any character to carry. Published by Dupuis across two decades, Éric shares their world with some of the most celebrated figures in Franco-Belgian comics history, rubbing shoulders with Spirou, Fantasio, and Buck Danny in the storied pages of that iconic anthology. With a key issue among their appearances and a run stretching into the 1970s, Éric is a quiet but genuine piece of the rich tapestry that made Spirou magazine a cornerstone of the bande dessinée tradition — exactly the kind of discovery that makes digging through Golden Age Dupuis material so rewarding.
