In 1929 a Belgian reporter began a series of global adventures in the pages of Le Petit Vingtième. In 16 days Tintin starts a new journey into the public domain. But those wanting to meet him there must brave pitfalls around issues like where he’s public domain (only in the US for now), what’s reusable (only what’s in the 1929 French-language strips), and even whether a controversial precedent might keep him copyrighted in parts of the US. Great snakes- er, Sapristi! #PublicDomainDayCountdown
