Unauthorised Tintin – Tintin with a Beard
This example of unauthorised Tintin comes from a 1990 comic called Inferno by Watson Portello.
I can find nothing about the artist or the comic or why Tintin and Captain Haddock appear to be pilots so please just enjoy this example of Herge’s impact on popular culture.

If it may interest you, I myself have begun a comic series of my own. The layout is like the Tintin comic strips of the 30’s, which in a way, makes it Tintin-related, I guess. If you want to mention it here, then the address for the comic is http://www.thatfellowinthecoat.com.
