— The Count's catchphrase


The Count of Champignac is a character in the Belgian comic book series Spirou & Fantasio.

Introduction

The count of the fictional town of Champignac-en-Cambrousse. He is a scientiast whose experiments mainly involve mushrooms. Some of his inventions include the Metomol, a gas that can melt metals.

History

He first appeared in Il y a un sorcier à Champignac, the second album in the series.

He initially appears entering the town of Champignac in an old car model, passing the red light. The Mayor unlike the others who passed by, did not rebute the Count’s actions, showing the Count as a highly respected figure [note 1]. Spirou and Fantasio went to the town, where the people were terrified by the presence of a "wizard". This wizard created all sorts of anomalies, such as colored pigs and cows that produced undrinkable milk; there was also an instance of a cow that aged on a short span and even died of old age. Initially it was assumed the one responsible was a Romani who just came into the town with his carriage to temporarily stay in the city. The two decided to investigate who this "wizard" was. They thought the castle they were camping nearby was suspicious and decided to investigate it, and turns out their suspicions were true, as they found animals in abnormal sizes and giant mushrooms.

Notes

  1. Originally the Mayor addresses him by the title of "Baron", but later on in the comic this is changed to "Count".
