I'm new here, I've been a long time fan of Tintin and am very excited about the up coming movie.

Of all the Tintin comics (I've read them all ) I must say that The Calculus Affair was the best. The car chases and the plot, plus the fact that after Explorers on the Moon Tintin finds himself inside a tank again!

I've got a question, which someone might be able to help with, about a story I'd like to track down, but can't remember too much about.

When I was a kid I had a two volume comics written by Hergé, about two kids, twins to be exact.

They had to fly their father's experimental plane and reach New York, but I can't remember the title – can anyone help?

That would be The Adventures of Jo, Zette and Jocko: The Stratoship H.22- Volume 1: Mr. Pumps Legacy and Volume 2: Destination New York

Oh yes - I remember now!
Mr Pump was a speed freak and his mansion had all the contraptions to make things faster.
He died when his car crashed while racing around his own personal circuit.
Thanks, it's all coming back to me now!
