comment
Léonard le Génie is a comic from the Franco-Belgian school by artist Philippe Liegeois and writer Bob de Groot (better known as "Turk & de Groot"). It follows the eponymous character, inventor Léonard le Génie (Leonardo the Genius, loosely based on real world inventor Leonardo da Vinci) and his clumsy "disciple" Basile.The stories vary in length from one or a few pages up to a whole album. The basic storyline is as follows: Léonard has thought up some new invention, and needs the help of his assistant to build and/or test it. Basile, being a Heavy Sleeper, first needs to be awoken, using another invention, explosives or just plain old cartoon violence. As the building or testing proceeds, Basile suffers Amusing Injuries, either from his sadistic master or through his own incompetence. The story usually ends in one of these ways: Basile goes a step too far in annoying Léonard and is chased by him, Basile finally gets fed up with the abuse and retaliates on Léonard, or the invention fails spectacularly and both Léonard and Basile are chased out of town by an angry mob.Other characters in the comic are: Raoul the cat, comments on the action and is sometimes seen applying first aid to Basile or repairing the property damage. Bernadette the mouse, comments on the action and is occasionally chased by Raoul in Tom and Jerry style. She has taken over first aid duty from Raoul in the recent stories. Yorrick the talking skull (a reference to Hamlet), comments on the action. Mathurine (Saartje in the Dutch translation) the housekeeper, is sometimes the victim of a failing invention, but also tends to put both Léonard and Basile back in place if they make too big a mess. The Great Albert (a time-travelling Albrecht von Bollstädt), a rival inventor. Although one album is just one long story about a huge battle between the two, in later albums they are shown to be on more or less friendly terms. Comes with a clumsy assistant of his own. The Villagers: Sometimes seen chasing Léonard and Basile out of town after a failing invention destroys (part of) the village. Mozzarella, (Mozza for short) making her debut in album 48. Léonard's adopted daughter whom he rescued from the streets. Mathurine take a liking to her while Basile dislike her for losing his bedroom to her.A 20-episode All-CGI Cartoon was made in 2009.

Wrong Parachute Gag
 Léonard le Génie (Comic Book) / int_10e8d2d4
comment
Wrong Parachute Gag: Two similar gags: One comic has the disciple open the parachute, only to reveal a sheet of paper from the maid Mathurine, saying the parachute is in laundry. In another comic, a similar joke is made by Léonard accidentally handing Basile the backpack containing their lunch instead of a parachute.

Gone Horribly Right: At one time, Leonard replaces Basile with his nephew who's much smarter and more competent. Unfortunately, Leonard quickly finds out that his nephew has a big ego and doesn't really need his uncle to invent stuff. Worse, Leonard realizes that he misses the times where he could physically punish his old disciple. This prompts him to rehire Basile and ship his nephew to China by mail.

Not the Intended Use: Retroactive examples. Some of Leonard's inventions were created for something different than their real life usages. He invents the scaphander so people can peel onions without crying. Leonard invents the submarine to get into the town's sewer to look for a ring he lost.

Anachronism Stew: Although the stories supposedly take place in the 15th century, Léonard has electricity and modern tools at his disposal, and has built computers and robots, amongst others. Somewhat justified by him being an inventor, but still... Lampshaded at least once; Léonard invents a photo camera and, on having put the film in an envelope, realizes there's nowhere to mail it to. "Do I have to invent everything myself?"

Funny Background Event: When not commenting on the main action, Raoul and Bernadette are often engaged in their own activities. Especially in the older comics these are small stories by themselves. Once Léonard and Basile were talking and Raoul was in the background reading a Plaboy-like magazine with anthropomorphic female cats. Mathurine snatched the magazine and gave him a Finger Wag while Raoul was grumbling and sulking.

comment
It Will Never Catch On: Leonard invents the television, but the two citizens who see it think this invention has no future. Since TV channels have not been invented yet, the TV itself is useless. When Basile creates a rocket ship, Leonard says that it will never be useful for anyone. When Basile proposes that the submarine should be called, well... a submarine, Leonard think it's a ridiculous name and decides to call it a "sub-Leonard". Whenever Basile says a phrase that will become a Navy term, Leonard asks him to stop saying nonsense. Léonard invents fashion and has Basile tries out various iconic costumes of Obélix, Tintin and Donald Duck. Basile then invents the tuxedo, which Léonard brushes off as unfashionable.

Hammerspace: Basile sometime sleeps in small spaces such as inside a faucet, a tin can or a banana. Leonard creates a normal-sized suitcase containing multiple items of furniture. In a later comic, the suitcase is upgraded so it can contain a whole house.

Brilliant, but Lazy
 Léonard le Génie (Comic Book) / int_355007c3
comment
Brilliant, but Lazy: Basile, in those rare moments when he's neither sleeping nor being tormented by his employer, turns out to be a gifted inventor in his own right, and he even builds a single-handedly builds a Saturn V rocket in one strip. Among the more competitive examples of this: While Léonard is inventing the bicycle, he comes up with the motorbike. When Léonard invents the safe and gets a little too arrogant about it, Basile one-ups him by inventing the cutting torch to crack the safe open.

Heavy Sleeper: Waking up Basile takes high-yield explosives or similar violence. Most of the stories start with Léonard waking Basile up by some unorthodox means. Basile can also instantly fall asleep at any time. He even claims that he needs 22 hours of sleep per day. In one strip, he sleeps for 93 hours straight.

No Fourth Wall: The characters are aware they are in a comic—and Raoul occasionally addresses the reader directly ("Hey, it's our reader!

Captain Obvious: Leonard sometime does experiments leading to obvious conclusions. He forces Basile's head into a water basket for six minutes and concludes that humans aren't made to live underwater. He makes Basile tests a lifebuoy, which makes him sink underwater. Leonard then realises that a buoy should never be made out of concrete. It takes a scientist a month of research to conclude that bananas taste better without the peel. Basile is surprised that there are more Chinese restaurants in China than in Italy.

In morning, Basile calls out a completely exhausted Léonard for staying in bed. One time, Basile is afflicted with a prolonged case of insomnia and Leonard tries many experiments to put him to sleep. As expected, it cause many injuries and harm to Basile.

Early Installment Character-Design Difference: In early comics, Leonard's beard was much smaller than usual. It quickly got its iconic length. Basile had a bigger upper-jaw, slouched his head and had a dopey face. Raoul looked like a more realistic cat. Bernadete originally didn't wear clothes. she later dresses like a human.

Explain, Explain... Oh, Crap!: When Mozza attempts to shoot Basile, she hits the ceiling and a good chunk of debris falls on Basile's head. Basile explains to her that the blunderbuss has a strong recoil and she has to hold it firmly before firing. For the next seconds, Basile thinks hard of what he just said. Before he can react, he receives a volley of bullets in the head. Léonard wants Basile to test his new device: the international emergency call, just dial 112. Basile protests and says he isn't in any distress at the moment. He then realizes what will happen next and start running. Cue Léonard chasing Basile with hostile beasts and torturing devices in hand.

Tertiary Sexual Characteristics: Largely averted with Bernadette, who wears gender-neutral clothing and otherwise looks no different than other mice. She sometimes wears feminine clothing, but only for special occasions.

Both monsters end up falling in love and leave their respective masters. Later, you can see them strolling a carriage with a baby Frankenstein's Monster, much to the horror of the villagers.

Bait-and-Switch: Leonard sees a farmer using his wife to plow a field while the farmer follows behind. Leonard then says that these are inhuman working conditions and he's gonna make it easier. The last panel shows that Leonard built a wheeled chair for the farmer to relax, while the farmer's wife continues to plow the field by hand by pulling the plow and the farmer's chair. Leonard asks Basile some of his family members' names so he can name one of his inventions. When Basile tells him one of his family members is named Monopoly, Leonard thinks it's a perfect name for his invention, which turns out to be a skateboard, not the iconic board game.

Didn't Think This Through: Sometimes, Leonard invents things that are useless without a secondary invention. He invents the TV before TV channels. He invents the doorbell before electricity, meaning people have to yell a ringing noise themselves after pressing the button. He invents photography, but does not invent a way of developing photos. Leonard creates a complex-looking machine, then ponders what it could be used for. He invents the diving board before the pool. He invents suspenders before pants. He invents the tin can before the can opener. Léonard invents the hybrid car, powered with fossil fuel and electric batteries to make the air cleaner and free of pollution. After a successful test, Basile then ask what will they do with all those batteries when they reach the end of their life? Léonard didn't have an answer and decides to shoot Basile for ruining his day.

National Stereotypes: When Léonard travels around the world, every foreigner he comes across is a national stereotype. Downplayed with the protagonist themselves. While most of the strips could be set anywhere, we find the occasional reference (such as one character being called Mozzarella) to remind that, yes, the protagonists are Italian.

Apocalypse How: Played for laughs. When coming back from a conference about astronomy, Léonard explains to Basile that the Earth will be destroyed when the sun will go to different stages before going supernova. Upon hearing this, Basile is incapable of sleeping, while Lénoard wonder if he should have told him that these catastrophes will take place millions of years in the future. Léonard and Basile go to 2012 to check how things are. They find out that according to the Mayan calendar, it will be the end of the world on December 21, 2012. They travel to 2013 to find out that the apocalypse will not happen. They are relieved and return to their own time, except the next page shows a massive asteroid is heading towards the Earth.

Basile explains to her that the blunderbuss has a strong recoil and she has to hold it firmly before firing. For the next seconds, Basile thinks hard of what he just said. Before he can react, he receives a volley of bullets in the head.

Catchphrase: "DEBOUT DISCIPLE !" ("WAKE UP DISCIPLE !") "Je sers la science et c'est ma joie" ("I serve science and it's my joy") note That quote can be said by Basile multiple times within a story, starting off in earnest and degrading in enthusiasm as the injuries and Leonard-driven abuse piles up on him until it turns the final lap dripping in sarcasm and crosses the finish line dunked in vitriol. *sniff* (Basile's trademark reaction to suffering Amusing Injuries) Whenever an invention of Leonard turns really bad, Basile asks "What do we do now, master?".

Hypocritical Humor: Whenever Basile is hurt by Leonard's clumsiness, Leonard calls Basile clumsy. Basile is upset because Leonard's daughter is now sleeping on his bed, in his bedroom. Léonard tells him to keep it quiet because it's rude to awaken someone's who's asleep. Léonard lend his blunderbuss to Mozza and she use it to shoot Basile. When she wants to use it again, Léonard tells her firearms aren't meant to be played with.

Leonard is so used to using the names of Basile's family members that he believes he cannot invent the toaster because no one in Basile's family is named "Toaster".

Historical In-Joke: Léonard wrote Hamlet and repeats it with the help of Basile, Mathurine and a random passerby who speaks in rhymes. After everybody falls asleep during repetitions, Léonard decides his play is worthless, but the passerby likes it and buys the script for a pittance. In the last panel, Léonard looks at the bill of sale... One gag has Leonard sitting under a tree and receiving an apple on his head. In the punchline, he comments he has the feeling he's watching something important but can't put his finger on it. According to popular imagery, this is one version of how Isaac Newton discovered universal gravitation.

comment
Expy: Mathurine is an expy of Miss Partridge and Cunégonde, two similar characters from Clifton and Robin Dubois respectively. The two series were created by the same authors before Leonard Le Génie came around. Miss Partridge is obsessed with cleaning and order, while Cunégonde is physically strong and doesn't tolerate sloppiness, traits that has been transposed to Mathurine. Basile is also an expy of John Haig, the commissioner from Clifton. They are both slow-witted and clumsy.

Meaningful Rename: The first two times Raoul is called by name, he's called Prosper, but Basile decided that "Raoul" is better. While there originally was a debate between Basile and Leonard to decide which name was better, "Raoul" stuck.

Humongous Mecha: In an Affectionate Parody of mecha-based Anime, Léonard and Albert each build a giant mecha looking like themselves and fight it out. Léonard calls his Leonorak, a Shout-Out to the French-language version of UFO Robo Grendizer, Goldorak. Hilarity Ensues even from the word "go":

Comically Missing the Point: Leonard wants to prove to his fellow scientists that the Earth is round. He goes on a trip around the world with Basile in tow. After many weeks and many misadventures, they arrive at the back of their house just as predicted by Leonard. An exhausted Basile is glad the trip is finally over. He turns around and begin the journey home in the opposite direction. When Basile and Mathurine explain the concept of procreation to Léonard, they demonstrate it while dressed up as a bee and flower. Léonard takes it to mean that he has to seduce a flower, which he proceeds to attempt.
