Nice observation Cougar. Tintin does = Cam. I wonder if Tintin is Irish? He must be.

Well, it got you to look at it, didn't it? Therefore, they have achieved success.

Back on topic, CP does look curiously similar to Tintin...

Out of all countries, Britain, a nation that has never been involved in colonialism or atrocities performed in those colonies, has to bitch about a seventy-year-old comic book in which the political and racial views of that time are visualized.

How about you start reading?

It's not Britan its the The Commission For Racial Equality.  The author Herge 'had continued to revise his books after their publication, and admitted embarrassment over some of the views they expressed'.

If the author had admitting racist material then maybe the CfRE have a point?

Later books in the Tintin series make clear the author Herge's commitment to democratic, pluralistic values which reject outdated racist attitudes.

Herge himself later revised Tintin in the Congo, replacing a lesson in which Tintin points to a map of Belgium to explain the principles of colonialism with a less offensive mathematics scene.

In The Blue Lotus he shows Tintin dismissing Chinese prejudices about Europeans, while the hero also stands up for the downtrodden Chinese against the imperious British.

Marcel Wilmet of the Herge Foundation told the Reuters news agency that "the context is outdated… what's left is the jokes".
And please don't use the this paragraph as an argument
But Tintin in the Congo remains the most controversial of Herge's books. Other early examples of his work reflect similar naïve values: Tintin in the Land of the Soviets portrays communist Russia as a brutal dictatorship, while Tintin in America's treatment of 'Red Indians' is similarly uncompromising.
because honestly, most comic books in those days about Soviet Russia or native indians provided stereotypical views.
