Hergé (Georges Prosper Remi) - The original illustration for the Tintin album Le Lotus Bleu (The Blue Lotus) was rejected by the publisher in 1934 and, neatly folded into six, kept in a drawer for decades. In 2021 it was auctioned for €3.2m (£2.8m), setting a new world record for the most expensive comic book artwork ever.
