Retrato del reportero adolescente Un paseo por el siglo XX, Rafael Narbona

It is 2007 and Rafael Narbona hears that Tintin could be in an old people's home on the outskirts of Brussels. He has been assured that Herge's famous character is not an imaginary creature, but a real journalist who starred in some of the milestones of the twentieth century, such as the first moon landing. Narbonne goes to Brussels and meets a little old man who looks remarkably like Tintin, but denies being him. However, he offers to talk about the young reporter with the red hair, because he admits that he admires him and knows his adventures very well. The old man, who says his name is Niemand, worked as a journalist and interviewed great figurines such as Lawrence of Arabia, Churchill, Mishima or John Le Carre.

De los Soviets a los Picaros, Bartomeu Castell, Castellano

It was about time that someone also looked into the life and miracles of Hergé's greatest creation, because the detective with the bloomers and the trench coat has found out everything about everyone. He has solved mysteries around the world and has overcome the vicissitudes of time as if nothing had happened. But... what do we know about him? Bartomeu Castell has equipped himself with his magnifying glass and his wide-brimmed hat, and has pursued the Belgian with the bristly fringe to the ends of the earth. He has sought out all the witnesses, from the soviets to the rogues, from those who saw him born, with his simple strokes, to those who witnessed his last salute on stage.  Castell shows us all the existing clues to get to the center, to the heart of one of the Franco-Belgian vignettes that has stolen the most hearts.

    Geografías y paisajes de Tintín - Eduardo Martínez de Pisón

    €21.50

    The planet Tintin created by Hergé is a drawn and imaginary world, but with a real foundation that, although it belongs, physically, politically, socially and culturally, to the moment in which it was drawn -a vision of the world certainly Eurocentric, but inserted in the tradition of travel books-, at the same time that it is already history, it transcends, together with its characters, places, situations and adventures, all time and becomes an archetype worthy of study. Beyond the pleasure they give us as an artistic work, in the simple genius of the plots and their images, Tintin's travels and landscapes form an "imago mundi" that in each drawing treasures a geography, real or invented, in places that can be located on a more or less identifiable map.

    Hergé, hijo de Tintín

    Benoit Peeters is the acclaimed author of 'Tintin and the World of Hergé' and the last person to interview the creator of Tintin. In 'Hergé, son of Tintin', he tells the story of the creator's origins, and does not reveal what is behind one of the most influential figurines of the 20th century. Diving into interviews, letters and testimonies, many of them unpublished until now, Peeters reveals the hidden secrets behind Hergé and Tintin.

    EL SIGLO DE TINTIN. BIOGRAFIA

    This book establishes its story from the various adventures of the famous Belgian reporter Tintin that have been transmitted to us. Along with him, Captain Haddock, the faithful Nestor, Professor Calculus, Thomson and Thompson, Castafiore and all his universe of people and characters, times and spaces... and let's not forget Snowy. We thus come to the conclusion that Tintin is a hero who enjoys the invulnerability of the gods and the closeness of men, and that he is part of that group of chosen ones who make up the mythology that produces each historical period and allows us to understand it. That Tintin is a real witness of our recent history and of our most remembered imaginary.

      Del Quijote A Tintín

      Unsuspected relationship between a book of "mockery" and a "children's" comic strip

       

      Bringing together and studying in the same research the relationship between the stories of two characters of the stature of Don Quixote and Tintin is not within the reach of just anyone. Only someone radically in love with Hergé's art and his "clear line" and, at the same time, a great connoisseur of Cervantes' immortal novel could take on this task. "From Quixote to Tintin" is organized as a kind of bilingual dictionary Quixote-Tintin, Tintin-Quixote, with different slogans ordered alphabetically where the parallels offered by both characters are analyzed, which are many more than we would have thought before Joan Manuel Soldevilla discovered them and put them in value before our astonished eyes. "From Quixote to Tintin" is, from beginning to end, a feast of sensitivity and intelligence.

        Las aventuras de Tintín 23 - TINTÍN Y LOS PÍCAROS (hardcover) - Castellano

        €13.90

        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. For the story he drew some inspiration from the Regis Debré and the Tupamaros affair. But these events are only the backdrop for the adventure. We go back to the imaginary republic of San Teodoros, (see The Broken Ear), where two generals aspiring to dictatorship wage a continuous war to achieve power. We meet again the ineffable General Alcazar (see The Broken Ear, The Seven Crystal Balls), Colonel Sponsz (The Calculus Affair), now under the name of Sponge, who has been sent by Borduria to support General Tapioca, and the explorer Ridgewell (see The Broken Ear). Serafin Brass is also around with his overwhelming personality, presiding over the group of the merry Turulones, and we also find Tapioca's  charming wife: the terrible Peggy. What is striking in this album is that Tintin wears jeans, drives a motorcycle wearing a helmet with the hippie peace sign and does yoga.

          Las aventuras de Tintín 06 - LA OREJA ROTA (hardcover) - Castellano

          €13.90

          The theft of an Arumbaya fetish from the ethnographic museum takes Tintin to the South American republic of San Teodoro. There he is immersed in the war of this country with neighboring Nuevo Rico, and becomes an assistant to General Alcazar, a controversial character that we will meet again later in other adventures. Tintin goes deep into the jungle to find the Arumbayas and discover the mystery of the stolen fetish. This Tintin adventure was first published in Le Petit Vingtième at the end of 1935 and came out in volume in 1937. It was put into color in 1943. Here again, Hergé includes allusions to current world events. The conflict between San Teodoro and Nuevo Rico over oil is based on the bloody Gran Chaco war, which confronted Paraguay and Bolivia during the 1930s and lasted three years, causing more than 100,000 deaths. Hergé is almost absolutely faithful to reality. He converts "el Gran Chaco" to "el Gran Chapo" and transforms the names of two oil companies, but everything else is scrupulously accurate.

           

          In this album Hergé describes the first of his imaginary countries, which he will later make one of his specialties.
