Chaleureux salutations, Herge!!

A century ago, on 22nd May to be precise; Georges Remi – the brainchild behind “The Adventures of Tintin”, was born. A 100 years gone, but the spirit of his character still remains fresh in every fan’s mind. Tintin was truly the result of painstaking efforts by Herge and his team. The comics featured beautiful drawings and accurate renderings of real locations, like Hotel Cornavin in Geneva, and maps of places like India. A unique story writer Herge was; he wonderfully weaved the animated adventures of the reporter and snowy with the facetious remarks of Captain Haddock. The lifeline of this fantastic man is truly admirable,go have a look at it here. Indubitably, I will soon be a collector’s fan…very soon indeed!
