Answer: Tintin and the Picaros

Tintin teams up with his old friend General Alcazar in his campaign against opposing General, Tapioca.

Answer: Soviets

Not a well-known story.

4. What is the name of the residence that the Captain and Professor Calculus live in?

5. What is Captain Haddock's first name?

Answer: Archibald

Revealed in 'Tintin and the Picaros', no wonder he prefers to be known as Captain!

Tintin has been up against Rastapopoulos in more stories than anyone else, although he's not too keen on any of the other names on that list either.

Answer: A goat

'Is this acting the goat!?' demands Cuthbert angrily to the Captain, pointing to his massive spacerocket that will take them all to the moon...

Answer: Blistering barnacles

Another favourite is 'Thundering typhoons.' Tintin says 'Great Snakes.'

This is probably the most popular Tintin adventure, as he finds himself journeying through the mountains, snow, and rainforest of Peru in his quest to find kidnapped Professor Calculus.

10. Who is Tintin's Chinese friend that he meets in 'The Blue Lotus'?

Answer: Chang Chong-chen

He saves Chang from drowning and later travels to Tibet, after his plane crashes in 'Tintin in Tibet'. Thanks for playing!
