The iconic little girl returns after ten years of absence



It had been more than ten years since she had disappeared: here came back Martine, an iconic little girl from the 1950s and 1960s from Casterman’s comics, whose image has been repeatedly hijacked on social media. A new album by the heroine which takes us this time to the Louvre, in the maze of the Parisian museum, to lose us among the collections of ancient Egypt.

The two creators of Martine, Marcel Marlier and Gilbert Delahaye, are dead, but drawings made for previous albums have been reused and juxtaposed on photos in the museum, according to RTBF, which made it possible to achieve this little post-mortem miracle. It’s a way for the Louvre to introduce its collections to the youngest, and for the oldest of us who are nostalgic for Martine, to find her boyfriend Léo and the dog Patapouf.

Martine at the Louvre, € 6.95, Casterman and Louvre museum co-edition
