comique (plural comiques)

1. comic
   • 1674, Nicolas Boileau-Despréaux, Art poétique

     J'aime mieux Arioste et ses fables comiques
     Que ces auteurs, toujours froids et mélancoliques,
     Qui, dans leur sombre humeur, se croiraient faire affront
     Si les Grâces jamais leur déridaient le front.

     I would rather have Ariosto and his comic tales than those authors who are always frigid and miserable, who, being temperamentally gloomy, would think it an insult to themselves if the Graces ever unwrinkled their foreheads.
