A critical and personal review of each of the 24 Tintin volumes. In this episode, I review The Red Sea Sharks and give my own thoughts on the history of the book, it’s art and the context of the time it was created. In the Red Sea Sharks, Herge enters his late period of Tintin by bringing back an ensemble cast of characters from past adventures. Studios Herge are at the peak of their artistry. Herge receives more criticism for his depiction of black Africans. If you enjoy this and would like to know more about my projects, visit… patreon.com/seanandkiara

Reading Tintin #19
A critical and personal review of each of the 24 Tintin volumes. In this episode, I review Explorers on the Moon and give my own thoughts on the history of the book, it’s art and the context of the time it was created. In Explorers on the Moon, Herge, now working with his studio, sought to create a tale without the fantastical elements of sci-fi stories, but one grounded in scientific fact and research.
