One of the most iconic characters in children's books
When Captain Haddock meets a palm reader, he dismisses a forewarning about a beautiful lady's stolen jewels. When the famous opera singer Bianca Castafiore suddenly descends on Marlinspike Hall, the palm reader's prediction seems to be all too real. Can Tintin catch the emerald thief?
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.
The Adventures of Tintin continue to charm more than 80 years after they first found their way into publication. Since then an estimated 230 million copies have been sold, proving that comic books have the same power to entertain children and adults in the 21st century as they did in the early 20th.
Herge (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, comics series of all time.
