The Black Island (The Adventures of Tintin)

English

By (author): Herge

One of the most iconic characters in childrens literature

Hergés classic comic book creation Tintin is one of the most recognisable characters in childrens books. These highly collectible editions of the original 24 adventures will delight Tintin fans old and new. Perfect for lovers of graphic novels, mysteries and historical adventures.

The worlds most famous travelling reporter solves the mystery of the Black Island. Wrongly accused of a theft, Tintin is led to set out with Snowy on an adventure to investigate a gang of forgers. Can he save the day?

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 90 years after they first found their way into publication. Since then more than 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.

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, comics series of all time.

About Herge

Hergé (Georges Remi) was born in Brussels in 1907. His pseudonym comes from his initials backwards (R.G. as pronounced in French). Over the course of 54 years he completed 23 albums of The Adventures of Tintin series which is now considered to be one of the greatest if not the greatest comics series of all time. With translations published in over 80 languages more than 230 million copies sold worldwide and a Hollywood movie to its name Tintin dominates the Comics and Graphic Novels chart even today. Sadly Hergé died in 1983 leaving his 24th album Tintin and Alph-Art unfinished but his hero continues to be one of the most iconic characters in both adult and childrens fiction.
