I was never a fan of the TINTIN comics. I mean not to say they were not any good, but I was far too busy with my Marvel and DC comics to care much for the adventures of a young investigator and his dog. Needless to say when it was announced that Peter Jackson and Steven Spielberg would come More >

Here’s the man that made me fall in love with Batman, well, not in that way.
