Seccotine

Seccotine is a tenacious female journalist introduced by André Franquin in the Spirou universe, known for her fierce rivalry with Fantasio and her relentless pursuit of scoops, often crossing paths with Spirou, Gaston, and the Marsupilami across Franco-Belgian comic adventures.

Introduced by the legendary André Franquin in the pages of Spirou #796 back in 1953, Seccotine is a fixture of the beloved Dupuis universe — a character who has shared adventures alongside some of Franco-Belgian comics' most iconic figures, including Spirou, Fantasio, the irrepressible Gaston, and even the Marsupilami. Emerging from the Golden Age of European comics, she has proven remarkably enduring, with appearances stretching all the way to 2024 — over seven decades of presence in a world that generations of readers have cherished. With a key collector issue to her name and a place in the storied Spirou et Fantasio tradition, Seccotine is one of those characters who rewards the curious reader willing to dig into the rich, warm-hearted legacy of Dupuis at its finest.
