The Official Classic Children’s Illustrated Mystery Adventure Series
Description
One of the most iconic characters in children’s literature
Hergé’s classic comic book creation, Tintin, is one of the most recognisable characters in children’s books. These highly collectible editions of the original 24 adventures will delight Tintin fans, both old and new. Perfect for lovers of graphic novels, mysteries, and historical adventures.
Join the world’s most famous travelling reporter in his final unfinished adventure, Tintin and Alph-Art.
In an interview shortly before his death, Hergé wrote of the last Tintin adventure: "The plot revolves around a tale of forgers … The book is set in the world of contemporary art. The narration itself is in the course of evolution. I am still doing my research and I honestly don't know where this story will lead me." Sadly, the tale was never completed, but this unique book gives an insight into the work Hergé had done on the project before he died. At the end, Tintin is about to be cast into a living sculpture by a mysterious enemy—one last cliffhanger for the world's best-loved boy journalist.
Join the most iconic character in comics as he embarks on an extraordinary adventure spanning historical and political events, and thrilling mysteries. Still selling over 100,000 copies every year in the UK, and having been adapted for the silver screen by Steven Spielberg and Peter Jackson in 2011.
Hergé (Georges Remi) was born in Brussels in 1907. Over the course of 54 years, he completed over 20 titles in The Adventures of Tintin series, which is now considered to be one of the greatest, if not the greatest, comic series of all time.
