I have been told that a newspaper (French?) produced an edition when M. Remi died which was devoted to Tintin.
Does anyone know which paper and the date or the edition?
Many thanks!

It might be Libération which illustrated every piece of news with a Tintin drawing. I guess it was the 4 March edition.

Libération - 6 March 1983, Nº558 edition.

I've been waiting for this thing to pop up on eBay forever...
Anybody know where I can get a copy? If anyone's interested in a trade, I've got lots of goodies.

The date of the newspaper was Saturday 5 March 1983.
Hergé died in the evening of Thursday 3 March 1983. This was announced to the press on Friday 4. Newspapers with the news were published on Saturday 5.

A copy can be ordered for EUR 20 from the Libération archives here.
