"The Ribambelle " was a glorious comic book series created in 1965 by Belgian designer stuff (author, inter alia, "Boule et Bill " series continued after his death) and translated into Italian under the title " The combric cola "and appeared in serial form in the pages of Corriere small and also on monthly Sprint Albi. He told of a gang of six teenagers engaged with each other to defend the land where they used to play.
As often happened in those years to act as sponsor to several comic book series is once again that not only inspire Franquin Peyo for the name of his famous blue men inspired stuff for the creation of this series shoots which were born in 1957 in a story by Jo-El Azara and Denis called "Operation ciseaux " appeared and where, among the many young players, a boy of color named in honor of trumpeter Dizzy Gillespie Dizzy. But it will be only five years after Franquin remember this project ever developed and will advise a colleague that stuff turn into a successful series of adventures with six successful albums can rightly be considered a classic cartoon for kids.
In one of these stories (The Ribambelle aux Galopingos ) kids leave for the islands in search of their friend Galopingos pastry for missing data, Mr. Pastafrolla. The room where the
nostro scapolo vive è assai disordinata come si nota nella vignetta: cartine geografiche, lance tribali, un mappamondo; c'è addirittura un pesce palla tropicale con gli aculei e uno squalo! Oggetti inusuali, non c'è che dire!
Ma... sono davvero così rari da trovare in un normale abitazione?
Eppure , anni dopo, in un altra storia a fumetti ritroviamo gli stessi oggetti nella stanza di un altro scapolo di mezza età: è il professor Duralex un bizzarro scienziato inventore di Testar, un robot capace di allungarsi a piacimento, una sorta di Tiramolla di metallo!
Ad accompagnare il robot c'è anche Gaspard, nipote del dottor Duralex. La storia venne creata in 1987 by Francois Corteggiani with drawings by Philippe Bercovici and should have continued with a second adventure, published by Editions Fleurus but was never published, unfortunately, interrupting what could have been a fun series of success.
At this link, Blog Corteggiani if \u200b\u200bthey can see the unpublished plates in black and white:

But what it is curious to note is how the designers are influenced by stories read in the past or perhaps deliberately mentioned, who knows?
Fattosta it seems that Mr. Pastafrolla 60 years has bequeathed to his contemporary Duralex mostly of furnishing che possedeva!
