I am curious to see what people would do if they met Hergé, and if they could ask him just one question:
What would yours be?

Why not tell us what you would ask him first...?

It's nice – if setting such a thread under way – that the person posing the question offers an example of their own, to get the ball rolling.

When is Tintin going to have an Australian adventure?

I think I'll ask,"How would Tintin end? And why would you like to end Tintin?"

I am not sure whether the statement Hergé reportedly (?) made later in his life (which was, "I hate Tintin") is true, but if it is, then I'd like to ask, "Why do you hate him now?"

As for the trivial one, I think I'll ask, "Would you draw me in one of the upcoming Tintin stories as Tintin's (girl)friend?" XD

I don't mean to shatter your dreams, tintinsgf, but it seems that as a rule Hergé tended to avoid including drawings of readers in Tintin because he feared that he would be overwhelmed with requests.

One exception was reader Jean Tauré who appeared in Flight 714 as the reporter who interviews Tintin & Cº at the end.

Also I should imagine that he hated Tintin because he was always under pressure to produce new stories and the work would sometimes become too much.

As for my own question, well I'd ask, "How does Alph-Art end and is it really Rastapopoulos who is the villain?"

Ah, sorry, yes! My question would have to be... "What happens to Tintin at the end of Alph-Art?"

"Would you mind giving me a lovely page of original artwork from Tintin in Tibet? Any page would do. That would be ever so kind of you!"

'Do you really dislike your first adventure (Soviets) that much? I think it would be great if you reworked it into a standard 62 adventure like the rest of the adventures!'
'Granted, it's not your best work but it deserves to be polished up as to stand alongside the others as a complete tale as it was the story which started everything off..'
'C'mon Herge!'

If you were Tintin, would you really appreciate all of the things that happen to you?
