The Mini Menace Ladybug
The first drawing in existence of Ladybug by Thomas Astruc.
Chronology
Next	Ladybug PV

The Mini Menace Ladybug was a series of fake comic book covers and concept art drawn by Thomas Astruc before Miraculous: Tales of Ladybug & Cat Noir went into production. These are the first drawings of Ladybug that Thomas made.

Characters

• Marinette/Ladybug
• Marinette's father
• Cat Noir

Trivia

• The mock cover art for the first issue reveals that Marinette's name was originally going to be Marietta.
• In the end card for "The Evillustrator", Issue Cover #10 appears in a page of Nathaniel's sketchbook. The cover title and the corner box were changed, and the guns pointed at Ladybug were removed.
• Cat Noir came into existence around the time the fake covers were being made, as seen with his appearance on Cover #12.
• Issue #15's cover is a homage to the famous moment in The Amazing Spider-Man #50, "Spider-Man No More!", in which Peter Parker decides to quit being Spider-Man and abandons his costume.
• Cover #5 in which Ladybug takes off her mask, and in her left eye can see the symbol Miraculous, probably refers to sharingan and Obito.
• It appears the series was going to be more violent with the mock cover art of some of the volumes.
