Red Rackham's Treasure: The Official Classic Children’s Illustrated Mystery Adventure Series (The Adventures of Tintin)

Product Information

Hergé depicts the Sondonesians using the real Indonesian language. While on duty, two of Tintin's captors talk about a particular Indonesian dish that originated in Java: sambal ulek (ground chili sauce with shrimp paste). In 1991, a collaboration between the French studio Ellipse and the Canadian animation company Nelvana adapted 21 of the stories into a series of episodes. The Secret of the Unicorn was the ninth story of The Adventures of Tintin to be produced and was divided into two thirty-minute episodes. Directed by Stéphane Bernasconi, the series has been praised for being "generally faithful" to the original comics, to the extent that the animation was directly adopted from Hergé's original panels.

King Ottokar’s Sceptre had 8 episodes of thirteen minutes, while The Broken Ear had 7 episodes. They were broadcast on RTF. ‘King Ottokar’s Sceptre’ aired from 28 November 1957 to 15 January 1958 on each Thursday. ‘The Broken Ear’ aired from 4 July 1959 to 15 August 1959 on each Saturday. In these two series, everything is done in semi-animation mode with a majority of still images and a few rare character movements. Only the episodes of The Broken Ear have a little more animation. Hergé finally got more involved than expected in the scripts and the drawings. Some of the boxes of the comics had undergone some small alterations as well as totally new images, notably in The Broken Ear. Likewise, the script has sometimes been changed. For example, at the beginning of ‘King Ottokar's Sceptre’ (episode 1), in the Syldavian restaurant "Klow", Tintin does not ask to go to the toilet but asks to phone. These visual and oral changes were deemed necessary to make the whole thing more captivating for viewers.

They take leave from their jobs to lend a hand and end up doing all the manual labour on board the ship. They are well and truly earning their keep. Alonso Pérez and Ramón Bada are the chief antagonists in The Broken Ear. They discover that a diamond is being concealed in a fetish and do anything to possess it. Pérez, an engineer, is the leader of the two. Bada, the follower, is a knife thrower, and uses more Spanish in his speech than Pérez. While fighting with Tintin in hand-to-hand combat for the diamond, Ramón and Alonso fall into the sea, each clutching whom they believe is Tintin, and drown. They are last seen being taken to Hell by smiling winged demons. Farr, Michael (17 October 2011). "The inspiration behind Steven Spielberg's Tintin". The Daily Telegraph. London.

Hergé consulted the archives at the National Museum of Natural History and the then recently published L'Art et le Mer (" Art and the Sea") by Alexandre Berqueman. [5] He also studied other vessels from the period, such as the Le Soleil Royal, La Couronne, La Royale and Le Reale de France to better understand 17th-century ship design. [6] It was from the Le Reale de France that he gained a basis for his design of the Unicorn 's jolly boat. [6] He adopted the fictional ship's unicorn figurehead from a British frigate which had been built in 1745. [7] When Liger-Belair's model was complete, Hergé realised it into the panels of his comics, regularly showing his renditions to Liger-Belair to ensure he was depicting the vessel with no technical errors. [8] In its finished appearance in the book, the Unicorn is a ship of the third rank, a vessel with three-masts and 50 guns, more than 40 metres long and 11 metres wide. [9] Herg (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.

He is based on the real life French gunrunner Henry de Monfreid, a writer and adventurer whom Hergé initially admired. When Hergé learnt that Monfreid was providing guns for war, his attitude about him changed. [17] Hans Boehm [ edit ] Peggy Alcazar is the wife of General Alcazar in Tintin and the Picaros.

[15] In revenge for Tintin's rebuking of his American friend, businessman Mr. Gibbons, Dawson has Sikh prison guards assault Tintin. Dawson then plots with Mr. Mitsuhirato and turns Tintin over to the Japanese, who have put a price on his head, [15] calmly dismissing Tintin's protest that he is on neutral ground. Dawson is ultimately forced to attend the ceremony in honour of Tintin. Sheikh Patrash Pasha is an Arab sheikh appearing in Cigars of the Pharaoh and a big fan of The Adventures of Tintin. He arranges for Tintin to be kidnapped, but when Tintin is brought before him, he recognises him from his adventures, frees him, and sends him on his way with fresh supplies. His servant shows Tintin an Adventures of Tintin book that Pasha owns. The book title shown to Tintin has changed over the years; it was originally Tintin in America, it became Tintin in the Congo at one point, and eventually settled on Destination Moon—the most recently published title at the time but, confusingly, takes place after the events in Cigars of the Pharaoh. [40] In The Red Sea Sharks, when Emir Ben Kalish Ezab was overthrown by Bab El Ehr, the Emir temporarily took refuge with Patrash Pasha's tribesmen, who remained loyal.

Endaddine Akass is a guru and main antagonist of the unfinished book Tintin and Alph-Art, the last of The Adventures of Tintin by Hergé. An odd-looking man with a large nose, long hair, beard, moustache, and large spectacles, Endaddine Akass holds a conference on "Health and Magnetism" for crowds of followers including Bianca Castafiore. Tintin recognises his voice. He could be Dr. Müller or Max Bird, but more than likely he is Rastapopoulos in disguise. His name, like many in the series, is based upon the Brussels patois marols.
