Excerpt: The supporting characters Hergé created for his series The Adventures of Tintin have been cited as far more developed than the central character, each imbued with a strength of character and depth of personality which has been compared with that of the characters of Charles Dickens. Hergé used the supporting characters to create a realistic world in which to set his protagonists' adventures. To further the realism and continuity, characters would recur throughout the series. It has been speculated that the occupation of Belgium and the restrictions imposed upon Hergé forced him to focus on characterisation to avoid depicting troublesome political situations. The major supporting cast was developed during this period. Originally Captain Haddock's first mate, Allan Thompson is often involved in smuggling and other criminal activities, most notably as one of Rastapopoulos'henchmen, except inThe Crab with the Golden Claws where he takes orders from Omar Ben Salaad instead. His name was Allan Thompson in the original French, but English translations leave out his surname to avoid confusion with Tintin's friends Thomson and Thompson. In Flight 714, he was shown savagely beaten by escaping Sondonesians, causing him to suffer severe injuries and loss of all his teeth, resulting in babyish speech. In the same book, he, along with Rastapopoulos and company were captured by aliens and faced an unknown fate. Allan is to be portrayed by Daniel Mays in the upcoming motion-capture film The Adventures of Tintin: Secret of the Unicorn which merges plots from several books. Alonso Perez and Ramon Bada are the chief antagonists in The Broken Ear'. They work solely for themselves in obtaining a diamond and drown at the end of the book. Peres, an engineer, is the leader of the two. Bada, the follower, uses more Spanish in his speech than Perez. Aristides Silk is a pickpocket who appears in The Secret of the Unicorn. Silk implores that he is not a thief, but admits he is a kleptomanic. H
