As has been discussed elsewhere at length, it isn't illegal to write fan fiction. It is illegal to publish it. So by all means, beaver away on your own material in your own home; just don't distribute it, give it away, sell it, put it on the internet, photocopy it, and certainly don't post it here!
Pardon me for being carried away last time I posted about my handwritten Tintin tales. Haaaaah... how I wish it had...
Your statement is correct, Jock. Since I discovered Herge's Will, I boxed my novelettes, reading them myself whenever available, then I selected three of them as plots for my own detective-adventure series. It's entitled "Jasper and Company". I must admit, my own series is half-Tintinesque plus half of my instincts, because the main characters are 3 journalists (TV, broadsheet, and photojourn) and an investigator, and one of the trio is following Tintin's footsteps. But then, whatever results will its publishing be three years from now, whether success or failure, I honor my series to the great Georges Remi.

zaveri_tintin asked: Who is Martine? Castafiore?
Martine Vandezande, the gallery assistant, who discusses the death of her former employer, Mr. Fourcart's (Tintin and the Alph-art). In contrast, Madame Castafiore is the Milanese Nightingale famous for her well-applauded performaces of the Gounod's "Faust"
ERRATUM Posted: 30 Nov 2007 04:12:06 "Mr. Fourcart", not "Mr. Fourcart's".
