TINTIN in the LAND OF THE SOVIETS HC

Description

(W/A/CA) Hergé

This adventure of Tintin first appeared in 1929, and Herge’s satire on the Soviet state was very much of its time. Accompanied by his white Wire Fox Terrier, Snowy (Milou), Tintin leaves Brussels to go undercover in Soviet Russia. His attempts to research his story are put to the test by the Bolsheviks and Moscow’s secret police…

Tintin is the classic example of groundbreaking graphic narrative that all others can be compared to, and Hergé’s art style, called “Clear Line” or “Brussels School”, has been adopted by new generations of European cartoonists.

This is the original 1930’s black-and-white facsimile edition.
