Tintin: Read the Books Before You Watch the Movie

Michael Segers, a long-time Tintin fan, alerts readers that they'll enjoy the new Tintin movie more if they've read the appropriate books:

I remember seeing Tintin features in a kiddie magazine one of my primary school teachers used to share with us--was it Humpty Dumpty?--and NOT becoming a fan. This may be because, at seven, I had a wide vocabulary and a shallow, uninformed little mind. Anyway, as an adult I'd like to revisit the books, but as noted in the article they've become rare. Click here to find them at Amazon...prices are likely to rise for a while, unless someone is clever enough to reprint them.
