The Adventures of Tintin is a series of comic strips and books created by Belgian cartoonist Hergé - the pen name of Georges Remi. Hergé wrote and illustrated the series from 1929 until his death in 1983, leaving the twenty-fourth Tintin adventure unfinished.
Each book tells a story about Tintin, a young Belgian reporter, accompanied by a fox terrier called Snowy. The adventures take place across the globe, including Tibet, Egypt, the Congo, China, a fictional country in the Middle East called Khemed, Soviet Russia, the United States (specifically, gangster-era Chicago, Illinois), and even the Moon.
The books have been extremely controversial, with accusations of sexism, imperialism, anti-Semitism and positive depiction of animal cruelty.
