Model Mart   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-12) Tintin teaches a class of children that Belgium is their motherland and, by the end of the story, the heathens are worshipping Tintin idols. In the story, Tintin continues on the opium trail and is kidnapped in Shanghai by the Sons of the Dragon, meets a young orphan boy named Tchang, and eventually thwarts the activities of the nasty Japanese agent Mitsuhirato and a corrupt Chief of Police at the International Settlement. Tintin was moved to the parent paper as a daily strip and continued to appear in these reduced circumstances until 1944, during which time Hergé wrote The Shooting Star, The Secret of the Unicorn and Red Rackham's Treasure. www.modelmart.co.uk /content/features?Category=Article&ID=532   (2728 words)

TINTIN   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-12) Tintin is the hero of a series of 23 comic albums by Belgian cartoonist Herge. Tintin goes all over the world, from the Amazonian jungles, to the Wild West, to Soviet Russia, Belgian Congo, and the Himalayas, and all parts in between. In The Shooting Star, Tintin is the first human to examine a gigantic meteorite and quickly notices the strange effects it has of increasing the size of anything that touches it, except for Tintin, luckily enough. home.earthlink.net /~inquisitor99/articles/tintin.html   (452 words)

Tintin: History of English Editions Tintin in America, which first appeared in 1931, was not published by Methuen until 1978, after Hergé had partly altered the objectionable representation of Blacks. Tintin's initial appearance in English coincided with a wave of hostility from educators and librarians against the comic strip form.

Edgar Pierre Jacobs - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia He became a friend of Hergé and assisted him with the recasting of the albums Tintin in the Congo, Tintin in America, King Ottokar's Sceptre and The Blue Lotus in 1943, then contributed the following year to the albums The Seven Crystal Balls and Prisoners of the Sun. Hergé also gave him tiny cameo roles in Tintin adventures, sometimes under the name Jacobini, for example in The Calculus Affair where Jacobini is the name of an opera singer advertised as starring alongside La Castafiore in Gounod's Faust. In 1946, he was part of team gathered around the new Journal of Tintin magazine, where his comic strip The Swordfish Secret was published, the first of the Blake and Mortimer stories. en.wikipedia.org /wiki/Edgar_Pierre_Jacobs   (899 words)

Tintin's Final Fling With Fate (washingtonpost.com) In "Tintin and Alph Art," the series's 24th and last book -- and the first new volume since 1976 -- our hero uncovers a fraudulent art scheme and tracks the perpetrators to the island of Ischia off the coast of Italy, where they have stored counterfeit paintings in a grand hilltop chateau. Tintin creator Georges Remi, known by the nom de plume Herge, died in 1983 before he could finish "Alph Art" and left instructions that no one else should write Tintin stories. Also in Brussels, the historic Halles Saint-Gery is hosting an exhibit called "Tintin in the City." In French and Dutch, the exhibit studies Remi's drawings of cities and his references to Brussels in particular. www.washingtonpost.com /wp-dyn/articles/A35930-2004Jun11.html   (1088 words)

Tintin crosses the Atlantic: The Golden Press affair By 1971, Tintin's popularity had greatly increased in the USA, chiefly due to the serialization of the adventures in Children's Digest, which had begun in 1966 using the British Lonsdale-Cooper/Turner translations and had a circulation of around 700,000 copies monthly. Tintin's American fans didn't have to wait too long to see their hero in print again. The Golden Press editions were the first Tintin books to receive printed spines—a cloth-tape spine had been used by Casterman and Methuen until 1963—and unlike the Methuen editions, which were printed by Casterman in Belgium, these were printed in-house by the Western Printing and Lithographing Company in Racine, Wisconsin. www.tintinologist.org /articles/goldenpress.html   (3173 words)

The Telegraph - Calcutta : International   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-12) Ottawa, Dec. 8 (Reuters): Comic book hero Tintin never aged during his 50-year career because the repeated blows he took to the head triggered a growth hormone deficiency, according to an analysis in the Christmas edition of a Canadian medical journal. Tintin was created by Belgium’s Georges Remi under the pen name Herge. The teenage character first appeared in 1929 and despite the passing of almost five decades was as fresh-faced as ever in the pages of the last book to feature him, which appeared in 1976. www.telegraphindia.com /1041209/asp/foreign/story_4105601.asp   (244 words)

WEBORGERS -The Belgian Comics This love for Tintin and all what is related to the character or his universe, led to the creation of a new word: Tintinomania...To convince yourself that Tintinologs (specialist of Tintin's world) can have a mania, visit the following site: The Cult of Tintin This site has a good Web links list as well. Some critics speaking of Hergé's world in Tintin compared it to the creation of some of the greatest writers for its richness of characters, the set of links between all of them and the unity of the world wherein Tintin evolves. In September 1946 appeared a magazine for the youth named "Journal de Tintin", capitalizing on the success of the character. www.geocities.com /Paris/Cafe/2877/comics.html   (1503 words)

Reading Room Index to the Comic Art Collection The Adventures of Tintin, Reporter for Le Petit Vingtième in the Land of the Soviets / by Hergé ; translated by Leslie Lonsdale-Cooper and Michael Turner. Many of Chicago's criminals are arrested, but Tintin pursues Bobby Smiles out west, where he and Snowy meet cowboys and Indians, strike oil, and get in a train wreck, a prairie fire, and get captured by a lynch mob. Tintin is kidnapped again from a banquet celebrating the victory over crime, dumped again in Lake Michigan tied to 400-pound dumbbells, which turn out to be made of wood. www.lib.msu.edu /comics/rri/trri/tintin.htm   (4135 words)

Movie Forums - The Adventures of Tintin   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-12) At the same time, though, considering the fact that the later Tintin was a collaborative effort and not exclusively Herge's creation and, therefore, markedly differentiated from the original (esp. pre-war) Tintin, and also originally titled "The New Adventures of Tintin", that should give the collaborators a stake in the project. Tintin was envisioned as a travelling correspondent for the newspaper's cartoon supplement, Le Petit Vingtieme (the little 20th) and Herge's cartoon strip portrayed Tintin travelling around the world and having all sorts of kooky adventures, which involved a combination of slapstick, situation comedy and social satire and commentary. The false and scandalous publication of "Tintin and Alph' Art", the edition of "Tintin Reporter" of an unforgivable mediocrity, the sumptuary and flashy expenses, the formation of societies, are only rupee of starling from the point of view of Alain Baran's negotiations with the Ampere group. www.movieforums.com /community/showthread.php?t=4288&page=3   (9721 words)

Movie Forums - The Adventures of Tintin   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-12) Spielberg has been trying for 20 years to bring Tintin to the big screen, but the family of illustrator George Remi, known by his pen name Hergé, has always shielded the character from big commercial projects. Die-hard Tintin fans will have to accept that their favorite comic won't be quite the same when it hits the big screen. The book has no major female character who accompanies Tintin in his adventures, so an on-screen romance might be written in to draw a bigger audience. www.movieforums.com /community/showthread.php?t=4288&page=3   (1230 words)

Missing frames The comparison of several albums with their first publication in le journal de Tintin, are sometimes quite the same but in some of them a few frames have been erased to have a standard number of page for the publication by Casterman. But after some interruptions in le Journal de Tintin during the war, Hergé decided to set a brief synopsis (12 pages) of the first adventure and then start the following (prisoners of the sun). The two omitted pages were meant to have appeared toward the end of the story, and covered the rescue of Tintin's group from the erupting volcano. www.tintinmilou.free.fr /vignettes/uk.htm   (355 words)

boys clothing: types of French children's literature periodicals France cartoons   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-12) Le journal Tintin was first published in 1946, also in Belgium. It inclided "Tintin" along with "Blake and Mortimer", "Ric Hochet", "Modeste et Pompon", "Alix", and "Corentin". I think the influence of Herge (Georges Remy-- the author of "Tintin") is the most credible explanation. histclo.hispeed.com /lit/child/nat/fra/type/per/fcl-perc.html   (883 words)

Amazon.com: Explorers on the Moon (The Adventures of Tintin): Books   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-12) The story itself was published some years ago, but readers can enjoy here a set of amusing, if fragile, flaps, wheels, sliding tabs, and other pop-up effects--the only sort of dimension this vanishingly slight adventure features. One of the chief charms of Herge's artwork has always been the way his caricature drawings of Tintin and friends are contrasted by the realistic backgrounds, and this artistic style achieves its apex when we see the spaceship approaching the moon. This adventure sees Tintin and friends successfully go to the moon and back, defeating such problems as a rapidly depleting oxygen source and villains who have followed them into space. www.amazon.com /exec/obidos/tg/detail/-/0316358460?v=glance   (1178 words)
