Jolyon Wagg (Séraphin Lampion) is a character from The Adventures of Tintin series of classic comic books drawn and written by Hergé. He is an intensely gregarious, simple, and overbearing man. He is strongly disliked by Captain Haddock (although Wagg remains cheerfully oblivious to this, believing himself to be a great friend of the Captain) who finds him frustrating. He was once defeated (Accidentally) by Prof. Calculus, the only known time. Wagg is often portrayed as a clueless tourist in the exotic places where Tintin and the Captain have their adventures. Wagg is an insurance salesman by trade, and he often tries to sell the other characters insurance. He is generally seen as a more "modern" character, as opposed to the older archetypes (crusty sea captain, absent-minded professor) that inhabit Hergé's earlier works. Wagg only appeared relatively late in the series; his first appearance was in The Calculus Affair, the eighteenthth of the 24 Tintin books. Wagg also appears in The Red Sea Sharks, The Castafiore Emerald, Flight 714 and Tintin and the Picaros.
