    Tintin in the Congo is so racist that it could not be published in the UK until the 1990’s.

    Britain didn’t get racist enough for it until the 90’s?

      The 90s cartoon which is quite good, issues mentioned elsewhere aside, renewed a lot of interest in Tintin.

      So I think Tintin in the Congo was released in English more for collectors, it’s still often absent from collected editions or the back cover of single books.
