Never even heard of Tintin until I was an adult. I did devour my cousin's Children's Encyclopaedia Britannica Volumes 1 - 20 though

I did not, Nero. I tried, but Tintin's hair disturbed me and I had to close the book. He looks a bit like Simon Pegg, doesn't he?

East of Eden, West of Hell

I read a whole host of books, from Enid Blyton, to Nancy Drew, to The Hardy Boys, to the Point Horror and Point Romance. Not sure I ever really read "cartoons", I loved my imagination to create the pictures. But I'm sure I probably would have liked them, had I done.

No, I read a lot of Mills & Boon, Barbra Cartland and a lot of Mallory Towers and Sweet Valley High, together with a lot of James Herbert.

Occasionally Stephen King, but I preferred Herbert.

Nope, it was Enid Blytons Famous Five books later in my teens it was Jane Austin, CS Lewis then the more gothic books such as Dracula, Frankenstein, phantom of the opera and then Count of Monte Cristo. I do want to read now though some Marquis de Sade

I read them, because I read every book in my primary school library, but they weren't huge favourites. They seemed a bit humourless compared to the other comic books.

That's the mystery series, and we're my personal favourites.

Fatty aka Frederick Algernon Trottville = FAT

Yes, loved Tintin, have read nearly all of them several times and still own all the ones that haven't yet fallen apart. My youngest loves Tintin even more!

But Enid Blyton was my all time favourite. 7 year old me would be super excited to know that I now have a boyfriend whose mum is called Enid

Yes, I loved Tintin and read most of them, including a couple in French. I liked Asterix too, and was originally introduced to them when on holiday in Brittany, so read some of them in French too. I really enjoyed a now ignored children’s historical novelist called Ronald Welch, which were really good and got me particularly interested in military history.

C.S. Lewis was a great favourite too.

Also loved Asterix the Gaul series which were also much fun.

There wasn't exactly a great deal of female representation at all! Do we think Tintin might have been gay? Captain Haddock probably had a bit of erectile dysfunction, the amount he drank.
