	Rastapopoulos - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Rastapopoulos is the owner of Cosmos Pictures (Production in some titles) a studio house, and a front for many of his illegal activities and a good excuse for moving to various locations.
		Rastapopoulos subsequently resurfaced as a slave trader in The Red Sea Sharks, and kidnapped the billionaire Laszlo Carreidas in Flight 714 to gain the password to his multi-billion Swiss Bank account, but he was captured by aliens.
		Rastapopoulos died at the end of Rodier's version when an attempt at hanging Tintin and Captain Haddock went badly wrong, resulting in him being thrown off a cliff.

		Rastapopoulos is the first to go in this great settling of scores, as if Hergé had long wanted to get even with this character.
		I discovered this after giving Rastapopoulos the attire of a de luxe cowboy; he appeared to me to be so grotesque dressed up in that manner that he ceased to impress me.", he told Numa Sadoul.
		Look at the discussion between him and Rastapopoulos when, under the truth serum, they both boast of their worst misdeeds.....A good example for small children: the rich and respected man, who gives a lot to charity, and the bandit in the same boat!....That's not very moral."

	Flight 714 - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		In addition Laszlo Carreidas, a business and aircraft tycoon who refuses to shake hands ("it is extremely unhygienic," he says) brings to mind Howard Hughes, though Carreidas is actually based on Marcel Dassault.
		This was the beginning of a process he would continue in the next and final complete book, Tintin and the Picaros.
		A moment or two later, to Tintin's further shock, it turns out that the mastermind of the plot is none other than the evil Rastapopoulos, who declares that since "it's a bore to stop being a millionaire," it would be easier to simply take Carreidas's fortune.

	Rastapopoulos: Tintin's arch-enemy? - Tintinologist.org Forums (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-18)
		Rastapopoulos, in my view, is more memorable than someone like Allan - he's concocted better schemes, has a more ridiculous appearance, and is more of a pantomime villain than a true one (Müller, for example - he never dressed up in a pink shirt with a stetson).
		Rastapopoulos is usually referred to as an Italian-Greek villain and he obviously has a Greek father (thus a Greek surname) and an Italian mother (thus an Italian first name).
		Rastapopoulos is an Italian national and naturalized American of Greek descent.

	Destination Tintin -- For All Ages 7 To 77
		Rastapopoulos has never been known to answer to anyone, and he is always the ringleader in whatever story he appears in.
		In fact, Rastapopoulos is seen as Tintin's friend, aiding and secretly abetting him throughout Cigars Of The Pharaoh.
		However, Rastapopoulos disappears from the universe of Tintin by being abducted by a flying saucer towards the end of the adventure, leaving forever, having created a career that lasted from 1932 to 1968.

	Who is Walter, anyway? - Tintinologist.org Forums (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-18)
		It wouldn't surprise me in the least if he was the same person; Rastapopoulos seems to have a core group of lackeys and outlaws to do his dirty work for him.
		In Red Sea Sharks, Rastapopoulos and Alan are collaborating with Dawson and also with Muller/Mull Pasha and Bab El Ehr (whom they are backing up) in the slave trading business so it doesn't really matter who gave the order to get rid of Tintin and Haddock, it is a huge organisation.
		Walter was working for any of these bad guys really (or for all of them) and as it was mainly Rastapopoulos who was behind the plane business, I would say that he was the one who was targeting Tintin and Haddock at that point (as he did later on in the story).

		In Les Cigares du Pharaon the detectives did not have a name yet; but instead were referred to as X33 and X33bis.
		Rastapopoulos and Thompson will become Tintin's mortal enemies; da Figueira - a very convincing salesman to say the least—will become one of Tintin's better friends.
		As a reporter, Tintin would obviously have heard of such a famous tycoon; therefore one cannot infer that Tintin and Rastapopoulos have met before.

		It appears that the captain of the vessel which saves Tintin from drowning is based on De Montfreid, showing that even gun-runners have a good side.
		Other characters are introduced in Cigars of the Pharoah who play a large part in subsequent adventures: the villain Rastapopoulos, the super salesman Oliviera de Figueira and, of course, the twin detectives Thomson and Thompson who, in the fl and white version, are called X33 and X33A.
		It must have truly surprised Tintin to read about an adventure which he was to undertake in the future, containing friends such as Haddock and Calculus whom he had not yet met!

		Tintin becomes involved in an argument with Rastapopoulos, an arrogant film nabob, and this is the prelude to a streak of bad luck: cocaine is hidden in his cabin, and the Dupondts (Thomson brothers), two lesser-gifted but determined ("an order is an order") detectives try to track him.
