Tintin et les Picaros en langue arabe

Hergé's depiction of political upheaval felt both vivid and nuanced. I wonder what real events or places influenced this backdrop.

Tintin's resourcefulness is legendary, but sometimes it felt like luck played a big role. What do others think about his problem-solving skills?

The story tackles real political issues but maintains a playful tone. Did this tone work for others, or did it undercut the gravity of the situation?
