Which of all characters featured in Tintin books is the only to have existed and to present as himself?

Hi alvarolino

Could you explain little more your question to avoid misinterpretations. The question sure is clear for most of members, but I have difficulties to understand it :)

Hi tuhatkauno!

The question is based on the existence of a factual character featured in a Tintin book. The same look and name as in real life. Is it clear for you?

hi

Al Capone is the one.
Herge is there too, but he is not mentioned by name.

little later:
Silly of me, Herge is mentioned in every cover, now there are two of them

Beat me, tuthatkano. My answer was the same. My answer is Al Capone, the Chicago Gangster who appeared in Tintin in America. If Al Capone escaped Alcatraz by the time Tintin In America was published, Herge would have been shot.

Well tuthatkano, a well fought question, huh?

By Spartan-117 from Halo 2 I presume?

Why do you make this assertion?

That's it!
Speedy work, tuhatkauno, point to you. Your turn!!!

Well, I believe that Al Capone don't want anyone to mess up his buissness and may try to eliminate Herge for doing a comic about him and his sindiket. Well, this is only an expression, not fact by the way.
