Tintin
RedLion:
I used to read them all the time as a little kid!
But my recollections of it are all rather vague. Something about a strange sailor who goes about blustering things like "TEN THOUSAND THUNDERING TYPHOONS!"
KickThatBathProf:
Oh yes and BILLIONS OF BLISTERING BARNACLES
Whatever barnacles are

I think there were two or three animated movies (something with sharks?) that worked pretty well.

Yeah, I think there were three or so made in the 60s. That shark one, Temple of the Sun are the ones I remember seeing.

Was that it? I remember watching a whole series of them in the morning on Nick.
KickThatBathProf:
Yeah I guess you're right there was a series that did air on Nick. I did not know about that one. The ones StaedlerMars and I were talking about these ones
KickThatBathProf:
I think you might be right about that. I went back today and read one of the comics today for nostalgic purposes and I noticed some stereotypes of non-European people, but I'm sure that in his time, Herge was just portraying the viewpoint that any Belgian would. I'm also pretty sure that one of the comics was recalled in some place (Tintin in the Congo, perhaps?)
