To understand just how famous Tintin is, consider the figures: his twenty-three adventures have sold 105 million copies in France and more than 52 million in other countries. More than a publishing phenomenon, Tintin is a symbol: the emblem of Franco-Belgian comics and a historic character loved throughout the world.
The young man with the distinctive quiff is famous worldwide, yet very little is known about him. His age, past and family remain shrouded in mystery.
What we do know is that he is a reporter with the spirit of a grown-up scout, driven by an insatiable curiosity. He travels the world in search of adventure, with a particular fondness for exotic lands, and even reaches the Moon before 1969. Hergé, whose real name was Georges Remi, created an innocent, cultured and sensitive character, drawing him with exquisite elegance and surrounding him with stories of remarkable narrative vitality.
Special attention should be paid to the artwork: Hergé invented the “clear line” style, characterised by precise outlines and clean, uncluttered panels. This great comic book artist often combines highly iconic characters with remarkably realistic backgrounds. This combination, known as the masking effect, allows readers to use one set of lines to see and another set of lines to be.
