That's the first drawing of Ladybug ever done, circa 2005. And as mentioned in today's Cat Noir review, here are the pretend comic covers Thomas Astric also created:

Goodness! Some of those covers hint that Ladybug would've have a way darker feel. Kind of reminds me of Cybersix.
It'd be interesting if Thomas Astric could somehow flesh these out into actual stories or comics, just to see how different things might've been.
I like Miraculous just fine, mind you, but some of these covers really speak to me as someone who used to read comics. I can't look at that "C'est La Rentree" cover without thinking of the famous "Spider-Man No More!" one.
So for anyone interested I just learned that 5Below is carrying pretty decent figures from Miraculous. The leads in hero and civilian styles, queen bee, and rena rouge ate what I saw in stock.
It's not as nice as the old figures, but they're not dolls or expensive imports.
You just learned it back in July right?
Well now I feel foolish...
But no stopped by 5below on whim and remembered you reviewed Cat
😀
Meanwhile over here in Asia, I've never actually seen any of the toys in the flesh. We still have Toys R Us, for example, and neither it nor department stores nor toy stores carried them (or at least, in enough numbers for it to be noticeable).
And it's a shame, because I would love to get my niece into the series.
