Un ami de Spirou est franc et droit…

Based on a true story. In 1945, the editor-in-chief Jean Doisy published a stunning text honoring two children killed in the Resistance movement during the Second World War.

This three-volume work revisits the background and story of these kids from Marcinelle and traces the history of the magazine’s creation, led by Jean Doisy and the Dupuis family.
