Get out. Actually you know what? Read this. It's amazing.

Thanks. Hardly anyone mentions me in these things, and I never win (except for plug that one time), so getting nom'd means the world to me.

I loved reading Peanuts as a kid. I'm a of Calvin and Hobbes, but never heard of tintin.

I don't know if you are looking for recommendations, but let's say hypothetically you asked me I would hypothetically say The Greatest of Marlys or Fun House by Linda Barry and/or Supreme Blue Rose by Ellis Warren, illustrated by Tula Lotay. Linda Barry approach to drawing is like outsider art and I find her (her characters and the things they say) hilarious. Tula Lotay is an amazing artist. The way she draws, & her choice of colors. The use of water color gives it almost a dream-like effect. Their artwork are so completely opposite, but I'm a big fan of both.

I just read it, it's all right. But to be honest, it doesn't nearly have the humour or emotional depth of the other comics I know
And Nea, thanks for the recommendations, I will check those out too!

:yikes:

TinTin has been super-big in Europe for decades, though he was always too cleancut, too dated for my liking. His stories were a bit like Scoobie-Doo, but without the dog and without the jokes. The fact that Spielberg would spend time and money on an animated TinTin movie says more about Spielberg's lack of inspiration than it does about TinTin's merits imo.

Anyway, here's a straightforward intro that will bring you up to speed if you are interested:-

Yeah nobody gives a **** about Tintin in America nor do we even remember it existing.

What are you guys talking about. Tintin is dated in some ways, but funny as hell, and the drawings are fantastic

No I mean Tintin is so culturally irrelevant in America that his existence has been forgotten by at least the last two generations. Probably three, possibly four.

Yeah I believe that, I was reacting more to Lisna

I mean you do read Peanuts so that doesn't give me confidence in your ability to recognize dated lameness.

Oh I certainly recognize the datedness. I'm just able to look through that and see the value underneath
