Pif returns. Again ? Eh yes ! After a first issue of Super Pif in June, pulled more than 100,000 copies, the adventure of the return of the character created by Cabrero Arnal shortly after the Liberation thus continues, with its summer success. This time, for that success is total magazine team has the ingredient missing from so many fans: the gadget. And not just any gadget as it is the famous Pif fir (in the form of a bag of about 25 seeds), some specimens planted here over forty years still adorn many gardens, as we ‘learns in the pages devoted to it. Sustainable gadget, then, and in every sense of the term since, as emphasized Frédéric Gargaud, editorial designer Super Pif, “COP 21 in full, planting 2.5 million trees or the equivalent of the surface city of Nancy, is to allow children to make a significant gesture as for the climate. “
A handover between the generation of yesterday and today
