Any spinach-fueled super strength might have to wait a couple more years, though.
Different laws may apply world wide. Ie: in Europe is not about the publication date, but author life-span (author’s works get in public domain 70 years it’s death: TinTin gets in PD in EU in the 2054)
Yeah I’m guessing you can retell “in the land of the soviets” if you wanted and use Tintin’s design from those first strips, but every other story is likely still off-limits. Would have to be a completely original story using the character.
And some of the favorites like Captain Haddock, etc, weren’t in Soviets.

Yeah, you still have to wait over a decade to use him in the US, which is a pretty big deal.
You do get to use Tintin with an all-new look as long as you don’t use the newer blue sweater and long coat design, though.
