In an attempt to ask the shortest possible question:

Who is Mr. Meatball?

That's it... have fun.

Maurice Oyle the man in charge of the Meat packing Machine in Tintin in America.

Tintin and snowy "fall" into a meat grinding machine. They escape, after the workers go on strike. As they are driving away, Snowy refers to the guy that dropped them in as "Mr Meatball".

"A nasty piece of work, our Mr Meatball.

Page 54. Tintin in America.

My other guess was going to be Mr Pastapopoulos ;)

Well done, toydreamer. The point and question are yours. Maurice Oyle, AKA Mr. Meatball. Sounds like a warped Tarantino film to me!

Mr. Pastapopoulos. Nice.
