Leather jacket, smirk, and tie. It almost looks like he's trying to hide, but he's staring right into the camera, knowing that he's right in the center of the frame.

(Rhyme right there.) This is amazingly epic. Someone should make a movie of this right now. And I love the guy back-right— he just looks like such an "Oh man, I can't believe I am doing this" guy.

This is amazingly epic. Someone should make a movie of this right now. And I love the guy back-right— he just looks like such an “Oh man, I can’t believe I am doing this” guy. XD

I assume he's also the basis for Thomson and/or Thompson. Bottom left must be the bumbling front man who lulls you into not being suspicious while his mates rob your museum.

I am tempted to descend upon your house now, just so I can see this book (plus your D'Aulaire's Norse mythology of course.) I love the body language, the faces in the difference direction, the easy leans and placement of hands, the diversity of hair cuts. This is the kind of groupiness artists dream of. Finding the Tintin store in Paris was sheer joy. It's one of the few times as an adult that I have completely recaptured that childhood sense of AWESOME that comes from visiting a toy store. I was so sad I couldn't leave with my very own life-sized Snowy. D’accord, you are so not overreacting.

I see why you couldn't stop looking at it. You are not overreacting. It gets the mind going... What I wonder is, if pictures taken today will ever have the same impact. I have read the entire Tintin series, though. It's especially cool to look at it with those stories in the back of your mind. Amazing picture! I see why you couldn’t stop looking at it.
