Gaston Lagaffe

Gaston Lagaffe, created by André Franquin, is a beloved comic strip series that follows the antics of Gaston, an office clerk who consistently avoids work and indulges in various hobbies and inventions.

Initially introduced as a running gag in the Franco-Belgian comics magazine Spirou in 1957, Gaston evolved from pure slapstick humor to incorporate themes such as pacifism, environmentalism, and social critique.

The series is known for its humorous portrayal of Gaston's efforts to avoid work, his genial personality, and his supernatural ability to cause chaos around him.
