Spirou & Fantasio adventures

Back from their adventures on Zorglub’s lunar base, Spirou and Fantasio find themselves in a new pickle. Spirou Magazine is being sued for immorality and irresponsibility. The punitive damages bleed the coffers dry, and the two reporters have no choice but to sign a contract with an American corporation, the Viper, to bail the magazine out. But Spirou soon discovers that they’ve been tricked, and that in one stroke of the pen, he may have signed away his whole life!

Sometime after their adventures in Attack of the Zordolts, Spirou, Fantasio and the Count of Champignac have nearly finished repairing the damage done by Zorglub's ridiculous plans. Until that morning when they wake up in what appears to be their bedrooms, except ... on the moon! The moon, yes, where Zorglub - again - has built a massive laboratory. Unfortunately, the cost of such a construction is colossal, and the somewhat-reformed evil mastermind had to find financial backers ...

A hairdryer sent by an unknown party temporarily turns Fantasio into a docile automaton. Coming to in a car that appears to be driving itself, he hears the voice of his abductor, who introduces himself as Zorglub. When an accident allows Fantasio to escape, the mysterious kidnapper tries again with Spirou. In fact, the abductions' only purpose is to send the Count of Champignac a message - he and Zorglub are old acquaintances. But what is the enigmatic genius planning?

The Marsupilami, a mysterious animal that Spirou and Fantasio discovered in the jungle of Palombia, now resides in their local zoo. When he seems to drop dead suddenly, the reporters storm into the park demanding explanations. Much to everyone's surprise, though, the body has disappeared stolen! The two adventurers lose the thief after a night-time chase, but they will not abandon their friend, no matter where their loyalty may take them!

Spirou and Fantasio, swallowed by the raging waters of the river, find themselves in an unknown valley filled with very peculiar, and very dangerous, life. As they brace themselves to face a hostile nature long enough to find their way out, Fantasio contracts a deadly disease that turns him into a homicidal maniac. Spirou must now find a way to save him and himself and escape the deserted valley. If it really is deserted, that is...

Spirou, Fantasio, and the Count of Champignac have decided to enter a competition organised by a rich ship-owner: to design a method for human beings to safely dive to and work at a depth of 200 metres. While the Count’s genius is up to the task, increasingly serious acts of sabotage begin to endanger his prototypes – as well as the three friends’ lives. Who could have a reason to put a stop to their endeavour – and what is the competition’s real goal, anyway?

While on an expedition in Antarctica, the Count of Champignac makes an extraordinary discovery: a still-viable dinosaur egg! Having brought the precious find back to his castle, he invites a few colleagues over – along with Spirou and Fantasio – and sets about hatching the egg. But working towards scientific progress isn’t easy when one is somewhat absent-minded … and saddled with a whimsical Marsupilami ‘assistant’! Soon, life in the village of Champignac becomes rather complicated...

Over time, Zorglub has become a friend of Champignac, and is no longer the enemy of old. Yet when he comes to see the Count one morning, he uses his deadly Zorglwave on him - the infamous brain- scrambling ray. Two weeks later, Spirou and Fantasio receive a call for help from their old friend: apparently, there are monsters in Champignac! And when our two fearless adventurers reach the outskirts of the village, they are stopped by an Army blockade ...

Back in the present after their adventures through time, Spirou and Fantasio try to pick up their life where they left it. But the magazine refuses to publish Fantasio's account of their extraordinary journey, and he falls into depression. Until, that is, the bizarre and annoying Snuffeller reappears, bearing a call for help from Aurélien de Champignac, `their' count's descendant. A trip to the future appears in order - but what terrible discoveries await our intrepid reporters?

Spirou and Fantasio are hired by a doctor to escort some of his patients. Their ailment? An apparently incurable case of the hiccups. His solution: Send them on the most insane adventure ever and scare the hiccups out of them! Since he offers to pay for their expedition, the two fearless reporters agree to take the patients with them as they attempt to locate two explorers lost in 1938 near the Nepalese border... in the middle of a war!

Fantasio, chasing a scoop, slips through a cordon sanitaire surrounding a cargo ship fresh from Antarctica. He's hoping to investigate some disturbing rumours about the base where the ship comes from. But a seriously ill man has escaped the quarantine and begs for assistance. The Count of Champignac can help, but only if he has access to a very rare toxin - one that is stored, for example, in that mysterious ice base, where more patients await...

Spirou and Fantasio, during a daring night investigation, encounter a wounded man who is running from mysterious men. He claims they bombed an automobile factory to steal the plans of a highly advanced prototype, and that he took half of the plans and ran. Having sworn to take the documents back to their owner - who has the other half - the two adventurers are soon on their way to Africa. But of course, the bandits are in hot pursuit...

Spirou and Fantasio, in transit through Paris airport, are kidnapped by French counter-intelligence: in exchange for the release of two French nationals from Soviet prisons, the KGB demanded the two reporters' assistance. Because Moscow has a problem: the mob is getting increasingly powerful and bold, and it has infiltrated the authorities so thoroughly they can't fight back anymore. They do know, however, that the big boss is someone Spirou and Fantasio have met before and simply cannot ignore...

Spirou and Fantasio are famous - among other things, as the official discoverers of that legendary creature, the Marsupilami, one of which often accompanies them on their adventures. So when one of their conferences is cancelled in favour of a documentary film from an unknown author, they are understandably irritated... until, that is, they realise the film is the very first to record the family life of wild Marsupilamis!

Arriving back at Champignac after their resounding victory over Zorglub and his Zorglmen - poor souls enslaved by a terrible will-negating wave - Spirou, Fantasio and the count discover the entire village paralysed! Another potential use of the zorglwave, and a sign that Zorglub's remorse and his promise to free all of his men may not have been entirely sincere. Discovering the truth will take time, though, and send our friends on a trip far from home...

Spirou and Fantasio are spending a few days at Champignac Castle, keeping an eye on the estate while the Count is away visiting family. One night, as they are preparing to watch a comet pass in the sky, Fantasio's clumsiness causes them to lose consciousness. They awaken to the very noisy arrival of de Champignac aboard one of his strange machines - except that the old man claims to be not the Count himself, but one of his descendants ... back from the future!

After the Marsupilami causes a series of disasters, Spirou and Fantasio finally resolve to bring the strange animal back to its birth place, Palombia. Unfortunately, it's a nation in turmoil they find upon their arrival. The military is all-powerful, rumours of impending war are growing and a ruthless tyrant has seized power. To counter the dictator's plans, the two adventurers' only weapon is the Count of Champignac's latest outrageous invention: a mushroom extract that makes metals go soft...

An old seaplane skims the waves over the Pacific. Onboard are Vito Cortizone, former Don of the New York Mafia forced into early retirement by Spirou and Fantasio; Von Schnabbel, unscrupulous pilot; and a mysterious cargo supposed to turn Cortizone's fortunes around. But the mafioso is cursed with terrible luck, and the plane ends up at the bottom of an isolated island's lagoon. When two months later a sailing boat arrives, an unrecognisable Vito sees none other than our two adventurer-reporters come ashore!
