Schwartz OLIVIER SCHWARTZ AN ADVENTURE OF SPIROU AND FANTASIO Dupuis Original illustration, a tribute to Hergé, published in the Spirou magazine No. 4483 on March 13, 2024. Signed. Gouache on paper 29.5 × 29.7 cm (11.61 × 11.69 in.) Self-portrait of Olivier Schwartz in a reimagining of panel 8 on page 15 of Hergé’s *The Crab with the Golden Claws*, the scene in which Tintin first sees Captain Haddock. Every detail has been reproduced, even the green curtain covering the porthole. Only the characters and one element have changed. Tintin has become Spirou, Snowy has become Spip, and the beer glass has become a wine glass. In a supreme act of self-deprecation, the frustrated author pretends to feel guilty about Spirou’s supposed death, even though Spirou is standing right behind him. “The reader might have imagined that I was heartbroken over having killed Spirou. But not at all. In any case, Spirou can’t die. He’s the one who killed his creators. Not the other way around!” O.S.
