Tintin was a Belgian adventure comic strip, about a kid reporter and his dog, with as much popularity and recognitiion in Europe as Superman or Batman or Spider-Man. Practically unknown in America outside of nerd nation. I think the Euro-residents around here can summarize it much better than I can.

Fascinating enough, several European critics back in the day compared RAIDERS OF THE LOST ARK w/ Tintin.


That was one of the books we had to use in French class.


"When the snows fall and the white winds blow, the lone wolf dies but the pack survives."
Winter is Coming

Now this is the Law of the Jungleā€”as old and as true as the sky; And the wolf that shall keep it may prosper, but the wolf that shall break it must die.
As the creeper that girdles the tree-trunk, the Law runneth forward and back; For the strength of the Pack is the Wolf, and the strength of the Wolf is the Pack.
