This article is about the real world.

The Adventures of Tintin is a series of comic books by Hergé. Hergé began developing his ideas in 1929 and the series soon grew to become very popular throughout the world. The final additions were added to the series in 2004.

The comic books tell the story of a young Belgian reporter named Tintin, and all the dangerous, exciting and humourous adventures he has all over the world. He is nearly always accompanied by his pet fox-terrier, Snowy, as well as the grumpy sailor, Captain Haddock, the absent-minded inventor, Professor Calculus, and the two foolish detectives, Thompson and Thomson.
