Rendition In Favor Of Books The Blue Lotus (Tintin #5)
Tintin och Milou fortsätter sin asiatiska resa till Shanghai i Kina, för att försöka lösa mysteriet med farao Kih-Oskhs cigarrer. Tintin räddar den lille pojken Tchang Tchong-Jen från att drunkna, och de blir goda vänner. Jakten på narkotikaligan leder dem till tillhållet Blå lotus, där det står klart att skumma saker försiggår ...Hergé träffade Tchang på riktigt under sitt arbete med "Blå lotus" och deras vänskap kom att betyda mycket för honom; den öppnade hans ögon på flera sätt och gav honom ökad respekt för andra kulturer. Tintin som tidigare varit en representant för gängse uppfattningar börjar nu aktivt bekämpa fördomar. Detta visar sig tydligt i kommande böcker, där Hergé också varit medveten om vikten av noggrann research!

Humourous and engaging as always. Tintin was always my favourite as a kid!
Tintin, with his dog, Snowy, travel the world fighting injustices and solving mysterious cases. A fun comic book, and might I add, one of the very very very few clean ones, for kids! I definitely see why this has become a classic the world over!Ages: 8+Cleanliness: phrases such as good gracious, golly, crikey, great snakes and the like are sprinkled in the books. Because Tintin is fighting crime, there are drug lords and references to opium, heroin, and misc. drugs - never portrayed in a

Cigars of the Pharoah continues with Tintin going to China!
This early Tintin book suffers from loose plotting and casual racism, especially in the depiction of the Japanese (all the more surprising given Herge's clear attempt to counter anti-Chinese racism, seriously with a rather over-earnest dialogue between Tintin and Chang, more humorously--and effectively--with his depiction of Thompson and Thomson in ridiculous Chinese disguises). Far too many unlikely events and implausible disguises, but some lovely art, notably in the more panoramic half-page
