In this episode, we load up our rucksacks and make a long-overdue trip to the world of bande dessinées—and one of the most popular comics characters of the 20th century—with a look at Tintin in Tibet by Hergé!

When Tintin learns of a plane crash in the Himalayas, a dreamlike vision convinces him that his friend Chang has somehow survived the crash. Joined by his faithful dog Snowy and the irascible Captain Haddock, Tintin travels to Tibet, determined to rescue his friend against impossible odds!

Will our intrepid trio survive a brutal blizzard and the fearsome Abominable Snowman and find Chang before it's too late? And will this beloved boy adventurer make it to that remote Himalayan hideaway known as ... The Comics Canon?
