In 1942, Hergé hired assistants, Alice Devos and Edgar P. Jacobs, leading to the formation of Hergé Studios in 1950. By 1953, Hergé Studios had fifteen members, who together made Tintin an internationally popular graphic series. Themes In the beginning, Hergé presented a fundamentally orderly world threatened by forces of corruption and chaos in which, through the efforts of brave, resourceful, and compassionate heroes like Tintin, the chaos is diminished and good triumphs over evil. However, as the twentieth century’s geopolitical situation evolved, Hergé’s sense of what constituted order and chaos and good and evil changed.

During General George S. Patton’s push to Plzeň (Pilsen), Cope witnesses German soldiers being captured and shot by Russian officers. He meets a woman who was once a pianist and now washes clothes to survive.
