A meaningless little spat is keeping Spirou and Fantasio apart that day, when the young bellboy sees his friend in the company of a mysterious neighbour. Shortly afterward, a jewellery shop is robbed, and the owner identifies Fantasio, who has come to cover the event for his newspaper, as his aggressor. When the very next day a priceless Egyptian mask is stolen live on TV by ... Fantasio, Spirou is left with little choice but to investigate…
Ahh. Nice and detailed art and great colouring some nice jokes too, however, I could not get into this and I ask you to remember I haven't had access to Cinebook titles before.  I take it this is meant to be serious/funny.  I do know the series has been going years in France and its at 11 here so that says a lot.
