Tintin drawing sells for record $1.64M: auction house


PARIS: An original drawing from "Explorers on the Moon", widely regarded as one of the two best Tintin adventures, sold for a record $1.64 million (1.55 million euros) at an auction Saturday, auction house Artcurial announced.

The 50 cm X 35 cm drawing in Chinese ink by the Belgian cartoonist known as Herge shows the boy reporter, his dog Snowy and crusty seadog Captain Haddock wearing spacesuits and walking on the moon while looking at Earth. It had been expected to sell for between 700,000 and 900,000 euros ($741,00 and $952,000).

I used to read Tintin in Children's Digest as a kid. One of the 'good' comics unlike the jewed crap from Marvel or DC Comics.
