Die avonture van Kuifie (Frans: Les Aventures de Tintin et Milou) is een van die gewildste strokiesverhale wat in die twintigste eeu verskyn en is vandag steeds populêr.

Die eerste verhaal van Kuifie verskyn op 10 Januarie 1929 as ’n bylae tot die Franstalige Brusselse koerant Le Vingtième Siècle. Hergé skryf en teken in die tydperk tussen 1929 en 1976 23 strokiesverhale (die 24ste verhaal bly onvoltooi).

Brits en Britz se hulp word ingeroep om die saak te ondersoek. Intussen word professor Sonneblom ontvoer en Kuifie, Spokie en kaptein Sardijn vertrek na Suid-Amerika om hom te probeer opspoor.
