Blondin et Cirage (Blondin and Cirage, literally Blondy and Shoe polish) is a Belgian humoristic adventure comic strip by Jijé created in 1939 for the Catholic children's magazine Petits Belges.

Cirage is a black boy who functions as his comedic sidekick, yet is equally clever; despite Cirage's role of providing comic relief, he is the one who solves the problems the duo encounters, and so can be considered the true hero of the series.

They had three adventures during World War II, with Cirage being absent in the last one due to the racial policies of the Nazi occupation.

[3][4][5] Blondin et Cirage is notable for featuring the first black titular character in a Belgian comic strip.

While Cirage has a somewhat stereotypical appearance, the character is otherwise far more clever and sympathetic than most portrayals of black people in Western media at that time.
