The Amazing Adventures of Tintin

The Amazing Adventures of Tintin Review



Tintin, the series of classic comic books created by the Belgian artist Georges Rémi - or Hergé as he became better known. Translated into 80 languages, Tintin's adventures have taken him to the far reaches of the planet and into the void of space. From the snow capped isolation of Tibet to the jungles of South America and beyond. He's a young Belgian reporter who is kind, brave, decent and dogged to the end when he has a mystery to grapple with. With his faithful Fox Terrier Snowy and eccentric roster of supporting characters - from the cantankerous but noble Captain Haddock to the incompetent detectives Thomson and Thompson - his escapades are timeless. Such is the strength of Hergé's vision, the warmth of his characters, and the wonder of his art and signature ligne claire style. Take a trip through the history of this extraordinary series with The Amazing Adventures of Tintin guide and explore some of the greatest graphic novels ever published.
