Introduces some classic characters such as the Thompson Twins and Rastapopoulos but because it‘s redrawn from the 1930s and became last in the series rather than the 4th, the continuity becomes confusing. This vid explains it well: https://youtu.be/dIPvVZsEz7M. This story is acknowledged as being a growth in Herge‘s creativity ability with plot development, humour and intrigue. Despite the rewrite It‘s still amateurish and has racial stereotypes.

Interesting! With the story line carried out to the Next Book in the series The Blue Lotus. On a cruise, docked at Egypt, take a flight and crash lands in India. Epic Adventures.!!

Scrofulous Rastapopoulos @saresmoore

Dostoyevsky‘s description of Andrei Semyonovich as a scrofulous individual reminds me of this Tintin‘s charater 😁

Milu is the best!
My Luna, however, isn't still the best pet because she is biting my comic.

Book two of twenty-one down. This could probably accurately be described as the first TRUE Tintin story. This takes the cartoony action of the previous installment and adds more believable characters and a truly unifying mystery with lots of intrigue. Still Hergé proves to be rather inept in his depiction of other cultures, though he was still about on par with his Looney Tunes contemporaries. Only real let down was the unnecessary cliffhanger. ?
