Yay, Spirou!!


Are you sure you have no interest in the series? Tome & Janry's run on it was really good and worth a try, IMHO.

[rubbertea]

duuude, you have a yoko tsuno icon! i don't think i've ever seen this comic mentioned anywhere in fandom before

[malurette]

Yup! made it myself, cutting/pasting/recolouring a panel from Les Trois soleils de Vinéa. It's far from perfect but I like it.
Yoko Tsuno was my favourite series growing up and it's still one of my favourite fandoms today up until Emilia showed up, that is. I may have to call Canon Discontinuity on the last albums. And I, uh, wrote a few ficlets too. Gosh, I so wish it were more active as a fandom!

[rubbertea]

i like it, you chose a really great panel.
i admit i haven't read the last album but i liked le septième code well enough (i was happy to see olga again).
i didn't even know there was a fandom, tbh. would you mind sharing your ficlets? i've never read fic for this fandom and i'm curious.

[malurette]

Thank you!

Le septième code was OK: yay Olga! but to me things went downhill after. Time travel without Monya was a disappointment, and I feel what added to the Vinéens' history was unnecessary... and cheap.

Most of mine are here on my writing archive:

plus a couple of drabbles over at my journal waiting to be reposted:

I think elwan59 and taraxacumoff have written some, too, but I'm not sure where they're posted.

OP

[(Anonymous)]

I like stories that start at the beginning, go to the end, and stop. My impression is that Spirou is one of those series that keeps going and going and going, and sooner or later, I always start to feel like they're just repeating themselves, becoming hollow shells of what they used to be. I might pick up an issue or two down the line, but I don't think I'd become a real fan of it.

(Yes, Joe Quesada, I do want to see Spider-Man grow old and die. Better death than brave decay.)

I do find different artistic interpretations fascinating, too. Sometimes I go through the Fanart tag on AO3 or on tumblr and look at all the fanart without knowing a thing about the fandoms.

It may be even cooler this way. When you have so little knowledge about the characterization, you can see clearly how the few aspects you DO know change from one version of the character to another.

(on a somewhat related note, this is one of the reasons I love digging through the Holmes franchise fanart. Not only do the fanartists change the characters, but the characters themselves change, too. It's kind of a continuous multidimensional process).

Man I love Spirou and Masrsupilami

[inevitableentresol]

Yay, Spirou secret!

I have nothing more to say. I only know this character from his guest appearances in Gaston Lagaffe. But this still makes me happy.

I'm not interested in fanart for fandoms I'm not in, but I totally get the sentiment of liking to see how different artists interpret the same idea. It's the same reason I love cover songs and customized My Little Ponies.

[diet_poison]

I've never seen that guy before, but he is adorable. :3

[amethyste]

A Spirou secret! :D I'm surprised to see anyone would collect Spirou fanart of all things while not being a fan of its series, since the Franco-Belgian aesthetics don't seem to be well known or appreciated by people who don't actually like the comics...? Oh well, might be just my own experience. I'm glad I saw your secret, OP, especially since I didn't see that fanart before.
