Tintin, a globetrotting young Belgian reporter with a nose for trouble, has been captivating readers around the world since Hergé first put pen to paper in 1929. The animated 90s French-Canadian series The Adventures of Tintin saw the plucky adventurer, his faithful white terrier Snowy, the irascible Captain Haddock, the absent-minded Professor Calculus, and the bumbling detectives Thomson and Thompson leap from the page to the small screen, captivating viewers worldwide; from hunting pirates' buried treasure and foiling international smuggling rings, to a landmark moon landing sequence that pioneered the use of 3D animation.
