i once read that TinTin was based on (later Waffen SS General) Leon DeGrelle...who was, at the time, a friend of the author, Herge.

Luckily not true, although Hergé did know him…

Tintin was based on Hergé's younger brother.

He does have some "very much of his time" characteristics which may be thought not exactly politically correct now, though.

i've removed the picture...i read it somewhere and dug up a photo because i remembered the story and posted it when i saw the likeness...

i'm glad to hear it wasn't based on someone he knew (but may not have been friends with) who looks very similar, though

i add a smile as a friendly gesture :-)

That guy from Dead or Alive, who I guess, used to go into the barbers and sit sideways but asked the hairdresser to cut it as if he was facing forward. Edit - just googled and realised it was a pre lip-job Pete Burns. Blimey!

I think the true joy of a mullet is how it changes with age.

An eighties mullet day is usually a skullet...

Footballers seem to have the most distinctive hairdos these days, far more so than any contemporary rock stars.

This one's getting a bit tiresome by now:
