For me, it's about nostalgia. Every time I visit home, I reread my entire collection of Tintin books. I'm instantly transported back ten years to Saturday mornings sprawled out on my bedroom carpet, longing to travel around the world like my favorite boy reporter. There are certain works from my childhood that I love to revisit as I get older because "adult" references and humor are no longer over my head (I've seen the movie Clueless about 30 times for this reason), but with my Tintin books, it's not about bringing a new interpretation to the work. It's simply about remembering what it felt like to read them for the first time when I was little. It's like getting together with old friends and being pleased to discover that they've stayed exactly the same. I reread these books, comforted by the knowledge that everything will turn out okay in the end. And I am SO excited for the Tintin movie coming out this December!!
