Société des Amis du Cube (Society of Friends of the Cube) is a club that existed in 1985. Not much is known about this club. You can find the club mentioned in some copies of La Fièvre d'Urbicande. The club had a minimum of three members: François Schuiten (president), Benoît Peeters (secretary), Eugen Robick (treasury).
