"My only international rival is Tintin", said General Charles de Gaulle. The Guardian Unlimited has a piece by fellow aussie Peter Conrad on the Tintin phenonemon. Tintin, already one of the most popular comic strip characters in the world, and along with Hercule Poirot, probably the most famous literary Belgian, is set to be embossed upon a new commemorative euro coin. It is nice to see that my love of Herge's adventures of Tintin is shared by other adults.
