Tintin's nationality

[itchy]

Wah tahnks for all the info. I din know he is Belgian I had a hunch he was a Frenchman. I never had any tintin books, only now then start collecting from those second hand book sales. Also never read the entire series. Missing castafiore emerald and blue lotus and on the moon.

hey..
Both the Times Bookshop outlets at Centerpoint and Plaza Sing,
have complete collections of the comics.
Grab them best before they run outs.

Anyone knows where I can get the French version of TinTin here in Singapore? (Snowy is Milou in the French version) I dont think Alliance Francais sells it - although the library there has it.

Can try ordering it through Borders or Kino. I doubt you can find the 'over-the-counter' editions anywhere here

$13.90?! Is this discounted or normal prices? No warranty?

I buy mine in the 80s......cost a whopping $6.90. In those days, its a lot of $$$ to me cos i am only in Pri school.
