pickThe first Tintin I owned. It says 1st edition, 1975 inside. I kept it safe since I was a kid because it‘s my first and favourite book. The companion books I‘m reading say The Blue Lotus is the first good Tintin book but, for me, this one is better and has everything a young reader wants in an adventure (minus the racism). Herge‘s art is glorious and the story flows well.
pickFour of twenty-one "core" Tintin books down. This one lacks a lot of the things I enjoy most about Tintin (no Thomson and Thompson, and still no Captain Haddock) but makes up for it with genuine political commentary; there's the constant political upheavals in South America to the American oil company starting a war for oil and their arms dealing partner selling to both sides.
Welp, Tintin just disguised himself in blackface. Come on, Tintin. GET YOUR SHIT TOGETHER.
