Like maybe I'm supposed to know these characters from before, but I don't get it.

Indicating that you didn't know about the homoeroticism indicated you might have known about the racism either.

Besides it was a good excuse to post amusingly overt early 20th century racism.
Cool thanks for posting the homoeroticism, then.

Tin Tin is sort of a weird comic because it seems like there are entire weeks where the focus is on Captain Haddock trying to sneak kisses from Tin Tin, or Captain Haddock punishing Tin Tin, or Captain Haddock spying on Tin Tin (one entire comic of Captain Haddock silently staring at Tin Tin as he slept, for example). It's a really weird, dark comic. Maybe it's because it's European?

Can people post examples of this? I don't remember that.

In the UK retractible "utility knives"/Boxcutters are known as "Stanley Knives" after a manufacturer of that kind of knife. So "out comes stanley" could be an old man called stanley going out, or it could be a stanley knife being produced.

Yes, I wish I could get all of the Drunk Baker's series at least. I really liked those. I think I've found about all the ones I could on the net. Which could be all there were, I guess.

Hmmm...
Oglaf and Moon Over June is the best example of Homosexuality over Heteronormativity that I've seen.

You can either have ugly unending O-Faces secretly masking the hetero power fantasy, or you can have (here that follows is all very un-NWS, do not click outside of goonlairs) the unstoppable suck
vs. the un-cumable object. Homoeroticism, so good

He is playing that he's captured a damsel from a castle in the first panel and talks about his attraction to treasure in the second. This is a great comic.

E: and Oglaf is hilarious and if you can't take some homoeroticism when its that funny, you are the problem.

they both did a comic called platinum grit a long time ago too.

Which to be honest was lot more interesting than sex-gag-a-week. She seems pretty unwilling to talk about why it's been on hiatus for half a decade now, which kinda sucks.

Yeah, the comics posted are all from the very start of Hergé's career, Congo was his second story and America his third. During The Blue Lotus Hergé worked with a Chinese artist who pretty much turned him around and from that point onwards he made a huge effort to change and renounced all the racist right wing poo poo he was into. Tintin in Tibet comes 25 years after Lotus and you can really see the difference.

Most also tend to forget these first editions were published around 1930. A time when things like this were common sight:




As said before, Hergé is mostly a product of his time. The public opinion about African cultures dramatically changed after WWII.

Tintin in the land of the Soviets may not be a masterpiece, but it's still entertaining. It speaks volumes about the Soviet Union that it turned out to be a reasonably accurate depiction despite being meant as over-the-top propaganda.

Hergé knew basically nothing about the USSR (he was like 22 when he started the comic), so it was based mostly on a pamphlet written by a former Belgian consul to the USSR who had been chased out of the country. The pamphlet, like the comic, was outright propaganda, but was at least based on the consul's own experiences.

Tintin in the Congo, Tintin in America and Cigars of the Pharaoh were similarly barely researched. Most of what Hergé did look up for America, for example, was as a result of his really, really wanting to draw Native Americans for whatever reason.

E: Also, Le Vingtième Siecle, the newspaper Tintin was published in the youth supplement of through about 1940, was itself pretty much overt right-wing Belgian propaganda that called itself a "Catholic Newspaper for Doctrine and Illustration".
