About this Episode

George Remi, a.k.a. Hergé, created one of the most influential and popular comics of the 20th Century... Tintin is such a favorite of Travis' that he has Captain Haddock tattooed on his leg!

But behind the exciting adventures of Tintin, lays a personal story of a struggling artist, German occupation, and a series of not-so-secret affairs.
Was Hergé a Nazi mouthpiece as depicted by the Belgian Resistance? Or was he just a whiney oblivious idiot trying to make ends meet.
