Although not named, the "slightly racist" comics published in ''Le Petit Vingtième'' are implicitly early ''[[Tintin]]'' comics, with ''{{w|Tintin in the Congo}}'' being the subject of particularly sharp criticism for its demeaning portrayal of the Congolese and its positive representation of Belgium's colonisation thereof (all of which author Hergé later apologised for, going so far as to redraw the story completely for later reprints and include a strong theme of anti-racism in later ''Tintin'' stories). | |||
