Tin Tin et Spirou  This is about an average Joe and his dog, Spirou. Tin Tin is a bland and normal person who doesn’t always know what’s going on around him. The pair usually meets new people who bring them into sticky situations. This comic debuted January 10, Georges Remi wrote this comic.  This reminds me of the American comic, Marmaduke. Marmaduke is like Tin Tin et Spirou because he often gets into awkward situations, but finds a quirky way out.
