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.

I’m not a Tin Tin fan, but these books are A4 size, good value and my friend’s son was very pleased with them as a Christmas present. There was a great choice of titles, delivery was quick and they were well packaged so I would recommend them.

Classic Tintin adventure- one of the best
by KrazyBhoy
As a child, I remember going to the library and checking out the Tintin books and being drawn into the adventure, wishing I could be Tintin.
Now in my late 20’s, I have decided to purchase all the Tintin books so that when my 2 year old is a bit older, I can share the world of Tintin with him 😀

Lovely another exciting story! Good quality and well packaged, came quickly as I had only ordered it the day before.

One more added. Another classic.

If you are a Tinitn fan then there is only one score…. I still hanker after a higher quality edition but the type is clear – some versions are blured from my experience – so this was fine.

My son was really disappointed by the condition of this book and I agree, it wasn’t in the best state.
