À Suivre or A SUIVRE (English translation: "To Be Continued") was a Belgian comics magazine published from February 1978 to December 1997 by the Casterman publishing house. Along with the comic book magazines Spirou, Tintin, Pilote, and Métal hurlant, it is considered to have been one of the major vehicles for the development of Franco-Belgian comics during the 20th century.
