Description

The magazine shown in the photo is a copy of the famous comic book periodical "Spirou". It is issue number 3477, identifiable at the top left, with an illustrated cover entitled "Fermette Academy". The illustration features a character in a black suit, accompanied by two other characters, in a stylized farm setting, typical of Spirou's graphic humor. The color palette is vibrant, dominated by yellow, orange, and black tones, and the dynamic layout incorporates the title in large white letters against a contrasting background.

At the top of the cover, a strip of vignettes presents other characters from comic series in the magazine, including the inscription "He knows EVERYTHING about Alexia". The barcode at the bottom left specifies the reference "M 03251 - 3477 - F: 1,60 €". The mention "SPIROU.COM" also appears, confirming the contemporary edition of the magazine, while maintaining a retro style typical of issues published during the 2000s and 2010s.

The whole is presented against a backdrop of an old library, highlighting its vintage aspect and its value as a collector's item for fans of Franco-Belgian comics. The cover texture appears smooth and shiny, with no visible matte effect in the photo. The magazine is in a classic format, with a stapled square spine, as suggested by the shape observed on the edge.

The title "Fermette Academy" echoes a humorous parody, a frequent theme in Spirou's editorial history. The mentions "Talk to Badger: the stuff of offices" and "The Paddles family regrets to announce the death of..." attest to the diversity of series present within this issue. No major defects appear on the visible front face; the magazine seems to be in good condition, with no discernible folds, tears, or smudges.
