supports: European comics are comics produced in Europe. The "comic album" is a very common printed medium. The typical "album" is printed in large format, generally with high quality paper and colouring, roughly A4-sized, approx. 21x30 centimetres (8.4x11.6 in), has around 4060 pages, but examples with more than 100 pages are common. While sometimes referred to as graphic novels, this term is rarely used in Europe, and is not always applicable as albums often consist of separate short stories, placing them somewhere halfway between a comic book and a graphic novel. The European comic genres vary from the humorous adventure vein, such as "The Adventures of Tintin" and "Asterix", to more adult subjects like "Tex Willer" and "Thorgal". Yves Rodier ( born June 5 , 1967 ) is a Franco - Québécois comic strip creator known for his many pastiches of The Adventures of Tintin . Georges Prosper Remi (22 May 1907  3 March 1983), known by the pen name Hergé, was a Belgian cartoonist. He is best known for creating "The Adventures of Tintin", the series of comic albums which are considered one of the most popular European comics of the 20th century. He was also responsible for two other well-known series, "Quick & Flupke" (193040) and "The Adventures of Jo, Zette and Jocko" (193657). His works were executed in his distinct "ligne claire" drawing style. The Adventures of Tintin is a series of 24 comic albums created by Belgian cartoonist Georges Remi, who wrote under the pen name Hergé. The series was one of the most popular European comics of the 20th century. By 2007, a century after Hergé's birth in 1907, "Tintin" had been published in more than 70 languages with sales of more than 200 million copies.
