were the comics this childish?

IS it childishly simple? Or simply childish?

The comics touch real world politics. For example:

- In Flight 714, one of the characters seems to have been involved with the Nazi concentration camps. One of the protagonists is an international fraudster and criminal.
- In Tintin and the Picaros, one South American dictator is violently overthrown and his successor is as bad as he was, upholding the police state.
- In Land of Black Gold, Jewish Irgun organize a terrorist strike against the British colonial administration. Arab warlords wage war against each other. Civilian aircraft is targeted by a bomb.
- In The Calculus Affair, Soviet ("Syldavian" and "Bordurian") spies arrange a kidnapping of Western scientist to develop weapons of mass destruction.
- In Explorers on the Moon, East European spy tries to sabotage a lunar mission. Multiple deaths occur.
- In Prisoners of the Sun, South American Indians are harshly mistreated by Latin American majority.
- In The Crab with the Golden Claws, international heroin trade is revealed.
- In King Ottokar's Sceptre, Fascist East European state (Romania?) wages war against it democratic neighbour.
- In The Blue Lotus, Japanese assault China and mistreat its citizens, terrorist acts take place.

Doesn't sound so childish, does it?
