Oh! Racism indeed...I think it has only been magnified as the comic book is pure form of fun. How much I wished to be like Tintin back in those days and be able to roam around the world and be involved in breath taking adventures. I liked the part where he would be rescued from a potential danger by hair-breadth. The stories are great for kids and a very creative way to expose children to different parts of the world as well as give them some kind of sense of adventure. I don't see the point in moving it to the adult section as its target audience are children. Unless you are pro-racist, I suggest you to buy them for your kids and maybe enjoy them yourselves.
