THE ADVENTURES OF TINTIN - Cigars of the Pharaoh - Facsimile Version B/W Colored- French

 

After the colorization of the first titles published in black and white, the 4th album of The Adventures of Tintin, Cigars of the Pharaoh, was soon to be published. This 4th album incorporates a new color palette inspired by the artistic spirit that guided the coloring of the old films, respecting the black lines and the flat areas drawn and placed by Hergé. A new form of expression for the characteristic and exuberant environments of the jungle, the deserts or the Egyptian frescoes.

THE ADVENTURES OF TINTIN 24 - TINTIN ET L'ALPH-ART - FRENCH

 

Tintin and the Alpha Art becomes part of the classic collection of The Adventures of Tintin. Tintin and the Alpha Art is published with a new presentation, with a layout that makes it easier to read the adventure, and highlights the most finished sketches. And above all, the final pages present a series of newly found documents, which give a new version about the end of the story, and the eight possible endings of the book.

THE ADVENTURES OF TINTIN 23 - TINTIN ET LES PICAROS - FRENCH

 

Fans of Tintin's adventures had to wait eight years after Flight 714 to Sydney to read Tintin and the Picaros, which began appearing in 1976. Hergé was now only working for pleasure, and was in no hurry. The idea took time to take shape. The setting was clear to him: South America.

THE ADVENTURES OF TINTIN 22 - VOL 714 POUR SYDNEY - FRENCH

 

This album marks a return to adventure. It begins to appear in the weekly Tintin, in September 1966, four years after the end of The Castafiore Emerald. Here we meet again Rastatopoulos, whom we thought drowned at the end of The Red Sea Sharks, and his friend Allan. A new figurine appears: the very rich Lazlo Carreras, the man who never laughs.

THE ADVENTURES OF TINTIN 21 - LES BIJOUX DE LA CASTAFIORE - FRENCH

 

La Castafiore announces her arrival in Moulinsart, and the captain tries to flee the trip in a hurry, but stumbles on a broken step that they have not yet come to fix and breaks his ligaments. The rumor of a sentimental relationship between the singer and the 'old sea dog' is born and everything is full of paparazzi. And the jewels disappear...

THE ADVENTURES OF TINTIN 20 - TINTIN AU TIBET- FRENCH

<!-- [if gte mso 9]> <w

THE ADVENTURES OF TINTIN 19 - COKE EN STOCK - FRENCH

 

Slave and arms trafficking are at the core of the plot of this adventure, and as usual, Tintin and the captain are involved by a series of coincidences. This album is a sort of continuation of Tintin in the Land of Black Gold, and a large number of characters that appeared in previous episodes reappear in it. The emir Ben Kalishn Ezab, in trouble in his country, sends his little son, the terrible Abdalah to Moulinsart. Tintin and the captain flee from his mischief, leaving him with the long-suffering Nestor, and head for Khemed to try to help the emir.

THE ADVENTURES OF TINTIN 18 - L'AFFAIRE TOURNESOL - FRENCH

 

This is a comic masterpiece. We prefer not to explain the plot of the story here, so that those who read it for the first time can fully enjoy it. From the beginning, the events are chained at a fast pace: an explosion is heard, a storm breaks out, objects break, the power goes out and Serafin Brass arrives for the first time in the series.

THE ADVENTURES OF TINTIN 17 - ON A MARCHÉ SUR LA LUNE - FRENCH

 

This second installment of Tintin's lunar adventure was published in 1954. As in the first part, Destination Moon, we do not explain the plot here, so as not to spoil the pleasure for those who read these albums for the first time.

THE ADVENTURES OF TINTIN 16 - OBJECTIF LUNE - FRENCH

 

This work began to be published in the weekly magazine Tintin on March 30, 1950, nineteen years before the arrival of man on the moon. It is not science fiction but an anticipation as accurate as possible. Hergé contacted Dr. Bernard Heuvelmans, author of the book L'homme parmis les étoiles (Man Among the Stars), a specialist on the subject, who collaborated with the team.
