[…] -It’s Herge’s birthday. Without him, comics would be far less interesting. […]

For those who cannot wait that long, there is a delightful comics museum, located not too far from Brussel’s famous pissing fountain, in an old factory designed by Horta. Not only does it have a scale model of the rocket ship, but there is also a chunk missing from the grand staircase!
And while you’re there, eat the chocolate, drink the beer, see Magritte, then go somewhere cheaper and more interesting.
