Fantasio is a main character in the Belgian comic strip Spirou & Fantasio, published by Dupuis.
Introduction
Fantasio was originally created in 1939 by Jean Doisy as a faceless character in the Journal de Spirou, he was a journalist for the section "Voyez-vous les erreurs?" ("Do you see the flaws?").
In the 1942 puppet show Le petit théatre de Spirou, he had a different design, having blond hair on one side and black hair on the other. He was then molded into his definitive appearance by Jijé, in 1944, as a recurring character in Spirou's strips. He quickly became the deuteragonist of the comic, serving as a comic relief to contrast Spirou's seriousness.
Fantasio was also a recurring character in Gaston, in which he served as the boss of Gaston Lagaffe. However, he left the strip to accompany Spirou in his adventures, passing the torch of that role to another character, Léon Prunelle.[note 2]
Personality
Fantasio was formerly a reporter for the fictional Moustic newspaper, now he is the editor-in-chief of the Journal de Spirou, the magazine in which his and Spirou's adventures are published. He is easily irritable, as shown and during his appearance in Gaston Lagaffe, whenever Gaston does one of his "gaffes" (disasters caused by his clumsiness). Despite this, he also has an "eccentric" side to him, to contrast with Spirou's "grounded" personality.
