L'Étoile mystérieuse
Snowy is portrayed as brave and is often fearless against much larger creatures when Tintin is threatened. He repeatedly frees Tintin from captivity and saves him from dangerous situations, and will sometimes identify a villain before Tintin. The Black Island and The Shooting Star show that his only fear is arachnophobia. Snowy is loyal to Tintin and always wishes to stay by his master's side: in a scene in "The Shooting Star" when Tintin temporarily abandoned him, Snowy was inconsolable.
