Fric et Mique

A charmingly brief French comic series from Éditions René Touret, Fric et Mique launched in 1932 and has persisted with a remarkably sparse run of just two issues. The series is best known for its association with its original creators, whose work defined its lighthearted, early-20th-century humor. While its publication history is slight, its longevity—spanning nearly a century—makes it a curious footnote in the landscape of French bande dessinée, a quiet testament to the enduring appeal of its simple premise.
