A new museum dedicated to one of Belgium's biggest export products brings the work of the cartoonist who created Tintin out of storage and puts it in a futuristic setting. Georges Remi, better known by the pen name Herge, is first and foremost the creator of the bright-eyed Belgian cub reporter with the trademark quiff. "But it is important to show that Herge did more than just Tintin," Charles Dierick of the Studios Herge, which guards the rights to Herge's work, told Reuters at an event marking the museum's opening on Monday.
Tintin appeared in a Belgian magazine supplement on Jan 10, 1929.
