The Black Island

Upon returning from South America, Tintin sets off on a thrilling adventure in Britain, brimming with unexpected twists. It marks his first, though not last, encounter with the nefarious Dr. Müller, the mastermind behind an extensive counterfeiting operation across Europe. After a series of dramatic events, Tintin ultimately triumphs in dismantling this criminal enterprise.

Tintin in America

In Tintin in America (1932), Tintin solidifies his role as a champion for justice. He confronts the notorious Al Capone and his criminal associates, alongside a host of other villains. Hergé presents a compassionate portrayal of the world, offering a meticulously researched insight into the struggles faced by Native Americans. As Tintin’s fame resonates across the Atlantic, he arrives in Chicago during Prohibition, greeted by a host of gangsters determined to make his visit as challenging as possible. To navigate this treacherous landscape, Tintin must rely on his wit and steadfast resolve. Notably, Tintin in America stands out as the best-selling title in the Tintin series, surpassing Tintin in the Congo and Explorers on the Moon, which rank second and third, respectively.

King Ottokar's Sceptre

Originally published in 1939, this captivating adventure focuses on the threat posed by Germany. The story begins when Tintin discovers a briefcase left on a park bench, which sets him on a journey through Prague and into the heart of Syldavia. Along the way, he must thwart a fascist coup d'état aimed at overthrowing the kingdom.

Land of Black Gold

On May 9, 1940, the invasion of Belgium during World War II abruptly halted the publication of Land of Black Gold. At that time, Tintin's world was still in its infancy; Captain Haddock, Professor Calculus, and Marlinspike Hall had yet to be introduced. Eight years later, the adventure resumed in Tintin magazine. With some clever adjustments, Hergé seamlessly incorporated the new characters that had emerged during that time. By 1950, the adventure was published as a book, and years later, as the world evolved, a revised edition was released in 1971.

Destination Moon

Destination Moon (1953) offers an insightful look into the meticulous preparations and the launch of an expedition to the Moon, with Professor Calculus selecting the unique terrain of Syldavia as the launch site. The iconic red-and-white chequered pattern on Hergé's rocket was inspired by a method developed by NASA to monitor the movements of a rocket during takeoff. This design enhances visibility, making it easier to track rolling and spinning dynamics during the launch phase.

Tintin in America

In Tintin in America (1932), Tintin solidifies his reputation as a champion of justice. He confronts Al Capone and his notorious gang, along with a variety of other villains. Hergé presents a poignant portrayal of the challenges faced by Native Americans, demonstrating his insightful worldview. As Tintin arrives in Chicago amidst Prohibition, his fame precedes him, attracting the attention of every gangster in the city, eager to ensure he receives a not-so-warm welcome. To navigate this treacherous landscape, Tintin must rely on his unwavering determination and sharp intellect. Notably, Tintin in America is the best-selling title in the Tintin series, outperforming Tintin in the Congo and Explorers on the Moon, which rank second and third, respectively.
