JEAN-CLAUDE FOURNIER
SPIROU AND FANTASIO
Tora Torapa (T.23), Dupuis 1973
Original plate no. 29, with color tracing, prepublished in Le Journal de Spirou no. 1813, January 11, 1973.
Signed. India ink on paper
29.6 × 42.2 cm (11.65 × 16.61 in.)
This plate is a fine example of Fournier's graphic and narrative power, with a dialogue peppered with punchlines worthy of his friend Maurice Tillieux. Fournier's Polynesian landscapes - which include a tribute to the painter Gauguin - are admired, as is his magnificent use of black and white, and his narration, which makes excellent use of Spip's character, while Champignac never hesitates to give the reader a knowing wink.
