Breaking Free - The Adventures of TinTin

*higher DPI than previously hosted on zinelibrary

From Wikipedia: The Adventures of Tintin: Breaking Free is an anarchist parody of the popular Tintin series of comics. An exercise in détournement, the book was written under the pseudonym "J. Daniels" and published by Attack International in April of 1988[1] and then republished in 1999. It has recently been re-printed by anarchist publishers Freedom Press which includes for the first time Tintin’s earlier adventures during the Wapping dispute as told in The Scum, a 1986 pamphlet which was produced in solidarity with the printworkers.

The story features a number of characters based on those from the original series by Hergé, notably Tintin himself and Captain Haddock (referred to only as 'the Captain' and depicted here as being Tintin's uncle), but not the original themes or plot. Snowy is featured on the cover - being especially visible on the first edition's cover - but not in the narrative. The story tracks Tintin's development from a disaffected, shoplifting youth to a revolutionary leader.[2]
