Les Aventures de Tintin Tome 09 : Le Crabe aux Pinces D'or (French) (French Edition)

The Adventures of Tintin (Les Aventures de Tintin) is a series of comic strips created by Belgian artist Herge the pen name of Georges Remi (1907 1983). The series first appeared in French in Le Petit Vingtieme, a children's supplement to the Belgian newspaper Le Vingtieme Siecle on 10 January 1929. Set in a painstakingly researched world closely mirroring our own, Herge's Tintin series continues to be a favorite of readers and critics alike 80 years later.The hero of the series is Tintin, a young Belgian reporter. He is aided in his adventures from the beginning by his faithful fox terrier dog Snowy (Milou in French). Later, popular additions to the cast included the brash, cynical and grumpy Captain Haddock, the bright but hearing-impaired Professor Calculus (Professeur Tournesol) and other colorful supporting characters such as the incompetent detectives Thomson and Thompson (Dupond et Dupont). Herge himself features in several of the comics as a background character; as do his assistants in some instances.The success of the series saw the serialized strips collected into a series of albums (24 in all), spun into a successful magazine and adapted for film and theatre. The series is one of the most popular European comics of the 20th century, with translations published in over 50 languages and more than 200 million copies of the books sold to date. The comic strip series has long been admired for its clean, expressive drawings in Herge's signature ligne claire style. Engaging, well-researched plots straddle a variety of genres: swashbuckling adventures with elements of fantasy, mysteries, political thrillers, and science fiction. The stories within the Tintin series always feature slapstick humor, accompanied in later albums by sophisticated satire, and political and cultural commentary. 00.jpg......Page 1 00a.jpg......Page 2 00b.jpg......Page 3 01.jpg......Page 4 02.jpg......Page 5 03.jpg......Page 6 04.jpg......Page 7 05.jpg......Page 8 06.jpg......Page 9 07.jpg......Page 10 08.jpg......Page 11 09.jpg......Page 12 10.jpg......Page 13 11.jpg......Page 14 12.jpg......Page 15 14.jpg......Page 16 15.jpg......Page 17 16.jpg......Page 18 17.jpg......Page 19 18.jpg......Page 20 19.jpg......Page 21 20.jpg......Page 22 21.jpg......Page 23 22.jpg......Page 24 23.jpg......Page 25 24.jpg......Page 26 25.jpg......Page 27 26.jpg......Page 28 27.jpg......Page 29 28.jpg......Page 30 29.jpg......Page 31 30.jpg......Page 32 31.jpg......Page 33 32.jpg......Page 34 33.jpg......Page 35 34.jpg......Page 36 35.jpg......Page 37 36.jpg......Page 38 37.jpg......Page 39 38.jpg......Page 40 39.jpg......Page 41 40.jpg......Page 42 41.jpg......Page 43 42.jpg......Page 44 43.jpg......Page 45 44.jpg......Page 46 45.jpg......Page 47 47.jpg......Page 48 48.jpg......Page 49 49.jpg......Page 50 50.jpg......Page 51 51.jpg......Page 52 52.jpg......Page 53 53.jpg......Page 54 54.jpg......Page 55 55.jpg......Page 56 56.jpg......Page 57 57.jpg......Page 58 58.jpg......Page 59 59.jpg......Page 60 60.jpg......Page 61 61.jpg......Page 62 62.jpg......Page 63 99.jpg......Page 64 Following a series of mysterious clues, Tintin and Snowy trail a dangerous gang of opium-smugglers through the scorching Sahara desert and the alleys of a Moroccan port.
