On this early adventure Tintin is going to Chicago for defeating the Mafia!

Are these new America Spirits packs?
>>92029232
>>92029206
>>92029214
I didn't like this one because too many of TinTin's escapes here were enabled by sheer luck instead of 50/50 like in the other books.
Particularly that sausage machine scene. Even if it was a pretty funny social commentary gag.
>>92029258
>>92029276
>>92029271
but the plot armors are twisted as fucks.
>>92029296
>>92029206
>A single Belgian teenager, and his dog, succesfully takes down the entire Chicago mob which the American police was powerless against
What did Hergé mean by this?
>>92029319
>>92029338
>>92029271
It was mostly because the cliffhangers were done week to week and Hergé didn't plan things in advance at this point so he had to come up with escapes after the fact.
>>92029350
>>92029319
It's so weird that Al Capone is in this story, this is the first and only time real people showed up in this series.
>>92029368
>>92029351
it was also a comic strip on the first place, with black & white primitive art, this version is a 50's remake.

>>92029461
Spirou also has quite a track record
>>92029601
>>92029457
So, if Tintin is able to single-handedly defeat all crime in Chicago, why doesn't he go to every city in the world and repeat the process?
>>92029626
>>92029475
You're supposed to weigh him down with cement or something you morons.
>>92029638
the crime resumes as as normal as soon as he leaves. nature abhors a vacuum.
>>92029640
>>92029660
>>92029509
>>92029533
Wait, what exactly did Tintin do here? It seems to me like the cops did all the work.
>>92029680
>>92029533
>>92029547
And now we get to the part that was cut out of the animated series.

Will you stop this stupid shit? Don't you have some shitposting about Batman and the Joker to do?
>>92029776
>>92029776
Well, that's surprisingly brutal commentary.
>>92029690
Looks like he planned the operation.
>>92029789
>>92029809

Tintin has got to be the luckiest motherfucker that ever lived.

In the 1920s?
Yeah.
Mind you this is the last album where Hergé was so shoddy about his research, most subsequent albums tend to have less nonsense.

Scathing social critique of the Chicago police.
>>92030005
I thought he threw a loaf of bread at him..
>>92030443
Also is that fucking Rastapopoulos in the bottom left panel?
>>92030518

And Finished!
>>92030557
Thanks.
>>92030557
It was a fun read, thanks, anon.
>>92030533
Probably not originally, many earlier books were touched up at various points. Most of the books before Golden Claws are different to the originals.
>>92030603
true, here for exemple one original page for this.
>>92030557
And once he left, everything went back to normal.
Especially since he forgot to take down Al Capone.
>>92030557
>ticker-tape parade in Chicago

>>92030557
Thsnks for the memories op.
I used to read tintin in Spanish, before i found then in English.
>>92030653
Where do you find the originals? Are they buried in libgen somewhere?
>>92031132
I don't know, I randomly found it on google.
TWIST AND TURN
>>92029434
btfo!
>>92029206
Well, this seems at least tamer than Tintin's "adventure" in Africa.
>>92029638
you know why...
>>92030045
>>92030420
notice the posters here.
>>92033379
Mr. Bohlwinkel.
Tintin is like the Belgian Batman in how much the guy oozes plot armor bullshit.And I love it.

>Hehe... That would be a good deal, Salomon! I owe 50.000 francs to my suppliers... That way you won't have to pay me...
>>92034421
>That way you won't have to pay me...
I think he actually meant "That way I won't have to pay".
"Tefrais" is probably a stereotypical jewish accent version of "devrais" and not "te ferais" based on context and the lack of spacing.
>>92029333
Tintin staged a coup d'etat once. Dude's fucking hardcore.
>>92030557
You should do The Blue Lotus sometime. One of the best.
>>92030184

What did he mean by this?
>>92030208

>Armorer
Hi, Chicago anon here, that's total crap.
It's strange that they decided to translate Milou into Snowy as Milou doesn't mean anything.
>>92037987
"Milou" sound probably too frenchy for english audience.
>>92038192
Name changes are business as usual when it comes to comic translations desu, sometimes they make sense sometimes they don't.
>>92038192
Well, I just went on the wikipedia page for Milou and half the translations to others languages is a variant of Milou.
And then you've got the strange ones like Terry for the Danes and Bobbie for the Dutch.
