The Adventures of Tintin: Anyone like it? and Any questions?
-
Well, i'm a new member here and would like to know whether anyone here likes The Adventures of Tintin. Well, i'm a member of The Tintinologist forum and currently own a Tintin blog with no comments since 14 March. I'm lacking publicity.
Now, I know Tintin collectibles are a hard find in Singapore. You go to Popular and you find nothing about Tintin except his comics, not VCDs or DVDs. I managed to buy Tintin VCDs at Vivocity and a limited edition Tintin TV Series compilation. I know everything about Tintin, and you can ask me questions, if you like.
P.S: How can I paste photos here? -
To paste photos... go sign up at Photobucket.com or Imageshack.com.
Upload the photos there, and they will give you a URL to the photos.
Then click on 'Img' in the toolbar above, cut and paste the photo URL, and click on 'Img' again. -

TinTin, one of my favourites when i was in primary school
-
My brother got the thick 7 volumes of TinTin
-
Tintin my favourite too! Everytime go library and find!
-
where did snowy come from?
-
my favourite!! i read all le.. i think Prisoners of the Sun was a good one
-
Why is his name Tintin?
Why not George? Or James? Or Gustaramy? -
I like Captain Haddock and the Thompson twins. Also Professor Calculus. I also got a small Snowy plush toy on my desk right next to the comp. I bought it from a Tintin shop in Belgium.
-
Tintin was also my school day favourite. It has been so many years already. I can always remember it was so difficult to find the books in the library and these books were often the first few books I would look go for. -
me used to read when i was in pri sch
asterix too! -
both tintin and asterix is so in that time...

BLISTERING BARNACLES
THUNDERING TYPHOONS -

i bought 3-4 vcds only.. and have 2 tin tin pencil boxes that u r suppose to buy the vcd and they will give you.
tintinspartan: did you get the Tin Tin watch? it's limited edition, dont think it's available now -
I am a big fan too! Read and re-read the volumes several times. I've read Asterix too.
Question: Anyone knows about 'Bob & Bobette'? I've read a couple of their comics, but can't find them anywhere now. Anyone knows where to get them?
An example is http://www.rationalmagic.com/Comics/Bob.html -
Hi,
I have read all the adventures of TinTin stories except for 1-2 which my uncle did not buy.
My uncle who used to be rich bought a whole set of TinTin and i would the whole day reading.
Its a pity that such good stories never had much attraction. -
LOL as a kid I love Tintin, snowy and his gang, use to borrow em from library, Asterix too
-
I wanted to go library and borrow them again, but scared of people "making eyes" on me leh cos of my age, it can only be found in Children section only leh how?
-
tintin is from which country?
-
My favourite was The Calculus Affair.
Pure political sophistication in a Cold War setting.
Tom Clancy himself would have been proud. -
Originally, Belgium. The writer, Herge, was Belgian.Originally posted by blowfish:tintin is from which country?
For the English version, though, they modified the location to England.
Marlinspike Hall, for instance, is located in England. -
Notice the similarities?
Both like to shout also. Think now I know where 300 gets its inspiration.
"Blistering Barnacles!" (what does it mean anyway?)
I like the blue lotus (did i get the right name?) and tintin goes to the moon. -
There is a full Wikipedia entry devoted to Captain Haddock's exclamations (and their meanings):
