A Tintin drawing by Belgian artist Herge has sold in Paris for €2.6 million, breaking the record for the most expensive comic book art.
The 1936 work in Chinese ink, gouache and watercolour was destined as a cover for The Blue Lotus, the fifth volume of the adventures of Tintin, the young reporter created by Herge.
