Week Four: Carl Barks Donald Duck and Hergé Tin Tin Comics

Carl Barks Donald Duck and Hergé Tin Tin Comics I really enjoyed reading the Carl Barks Donald Duck and Hergé Tin Tin Comics. I actually used to read Tin Tin when I was younger because my dad was a huge fan. I even remember reading it in French when I was studying French in school. My dad used to read it to me in French because that was his second language since he grew up in Switzerland and grew up with the comics. I liked both comics, Tin Tin a bit more, but both in general because they were always about adventure. I love to travel and what I loved about these strips were that it was about ordinary kids it seemed and it would be them beating the bad guy or finding treasure – it would be something amazing. But, it used to give me hope as a kid and they used to make me excited in a way. Then later on I used to watch Duck Tales on Disney which was really similar to how Carl Barks made his comic strips except that it was in animation form and started to modernize.
