Identifiation Needed: Tintin on the cover of "Micmac" (?) magazine

#1 · Posted: 8 Aug 2013 04:56

An online acquaintance from a certain popular social-networking site and a certain fanart site brought this picture to my attention.

I'm not sure where she found it.
Apparently it was drawn by HergÃ©.
Does anyone know the story behind this picture? Which magazine? Why this cover was made? Who is that woman? Why am I not the one in with Tintin in that picture? LOL, ignore that.
I don't know if anyone else has made a thread regarding this picture - if they have, sorry.

Are you sure that it is a magazine cover? It strikes me as just an ad which would have been published inside a magazine, the idea being to use a famous comic character to attract attention to a fashion label called Micmac, probably early 1980s.
