The comics artist Jacques Tardi once said: "Never was drawn something as beautiful as the first black and white Tintin books." If for sure those versions present some deficiencies as regards the scenario, it's true that they see Hergé reach the height of his graphical mastery. Yet, they are somewhat ignored by the public in general...

Did you ever read a black and white Tintin (excluding the Soviets)?

The possibility that another artist could create new adventures of Tintin has been a much debated question since Hergé's death, and particularly during the last few months. If it should happen, what kind of attitude would the Hergé Foundation adopt? Should it let the new author adapt Tintin to his style, or should he try to respect as much as possible Hergé's own style, as van Hamme and Benoît did in their Blake et Mortimer? Let me know what you think...

If a new artist was to create new adventures of Tintin, would you prefer...

Results:

... that he gives to the character its own style without trying to copy Hergé's: 18 (21.43%)
... that he tries to do it à la manière de Hergé: 66 (78.57%)
