Over the last 73 years, this boy's been everywhere. He's zoomed to the moon in a red-and-white checkered rocket, trekked snow-covered Tibet in search of the yeti and has been saved at the last minute from being sacrificed to the Sun God by angry Aztecs. For all his hair-raising adventures, he hasn't aged a day.

He's none other than Tintin, the Belgian comic book character whose adventures with his dog, Snowy, have taken him from the Congo to China, from South America to Russia. If you're not familiar with him, ask your parents. He was the Harry Potter of previous generations, doing all the incredible things that you've ever dreamed of.

And now "The Adventures of Tintin," an exhibition at Shibuya's Bunkamura Museum, brings his escapades to life with 3-D re-creations that you can marvel at and walk around. Some of these objects were collected by Georges Remi, the creator of Tintin, who wrote under the pen name of Herge. (That's how his initials sounded when they were pronounced in French.) After his death, they were preserved by the Belgian Center for Comic Strips in Brussels. They've been brought here for this exhibition that kids will enjoy. That means no looong explanations and no quiet, somber displays.
