Why do you like tintin

ART — Speaking of artwork, the comic style of these books can only be described as beautiful. Clean lines and bright colors render scenes and characters in a pleasing style that is never boring or conventional. As you effortlessly follow the story from panel to panel you sometimes forget the skill and creativity that goes into juxtaposing various sizes of panels into a logical sequence.

FUN — These books are fun. Thanks for letting me go on a Tintin jag. You are commenting using your WordPress. You are commenting using your Google account.

He sleuths with his Dog, he's brave, and possess all qualities that any person can relate to. Kids find his tales fun, and adults find him to be like some part of themselves.

I think that's the reason everyone likes him. My favorite would be Flight , as it deals with a plane crash, something I really like reading about. He is friendly, very amusing and interesting too. Seems he can fit into any role of adventure and identically quick witted and inventive. His companions like Captain Haddock or Snowy, his dog, may seem complicated, he succeeds in unfolding the mystery in a simple mannerism.

Although he tries to stay clear from complicated scenes, Tintin often finds himself in troubled waters. The humour in and around him is very catchy.

The perfect role model Tintin in the Congo is my favourite comic. The story is full of twists and turns. And the way it has been written generates curiosity so as to what is going to happen next. It's unpredictable and the way tintin's character has been brought and way he solves cases is amazing! His acceptance extends beyond his immediate circle and cuts across cultures and continents.

He is a perfect role model and the best deal is that his books are suitable for rereads. The Secret Of The Unicorn The Secret of the Unicorn is the underlying theme of Steven Spielberg's masterful 3D motion-capture animated feature film The Adventures of Tintin in which Tintin stumbles upon a model of a ship in a market that turns out to be a great ship called the Unicorn that was carved by Captain Haddock's ancestors.

Naturally, bad guys get involved and before long, Tintin and Snowy are smack in the middle of an adventure that ends up with pirate treasure at stake.

Tintin rescues orange seller Zorrino who guides them to an ancient place called the Temple of the Sun where the team lands in trouble. From insights into the ancient Incas culture to hilarious interludes provided by Captain Haddock and the Thompsons, this is one of the best plotted Tintin stories. Tintin In Tibet This novel sees Tintin travel to Tibet with Captain Haddock in search of the former's friend whose plane crashed in the mountains.

When they find the plane's wreckage, Tintin is warned about the yeti who lives in these mountains but he must ultimately solve the mystery of the yeti if he has to find his friend Chang. This book is low of action but has a lot of emotion to keep fans of the series going. Red Rackham's Treasure Red Rackham's Treasure is sort of a continuation of The Secret of the Unicorn and was once again a prominent feature of Spielberg's movie as well.

It feels difficult to leave out a book that has genuine action, adventures in the sea and a pirate treasure at the end of it all. To find the treasure hidden in cryptic clues by Sir Francis Haddock, Tintin and Captain Haddock must trust a new character Calculus' invention of the underwater machine to get the treasure before the bad guys. The Calculus Affair The Calculus Affair is a book dedicated to Calculus that many consider to be the best in the series.

In this series, Professor Calculus invents a sonic machine that could topple entire cities if it fell into the wrong hands. He gets kidnapped by some bad guys belonging to a fictional Soviet-state called Bordurians from where Tintin must save him. This book has, in particular, been praised for Herge's high quality of artwork. I like Tintin a lot. I like adventure stories, and Tintin is one of them.

I like Red Rackham''s Treasure a lot. He and Captain Haddock were very determined to find the treasure. I do not know what will happen next. There has also been a cartoon series and several movies — the most recent of which, The Secret of the Unicorn , was directed by Steven Spielberg.

There are a number of reasons we should celebrate Tintin. From a comic book perspective, Tintin had a number of important firsts: Tintin was the first successful comic book series in Belgium and led directly to the beginning of the comic book industry there. However, more generally, The adventures of Tintin are important in an educational sense.

I have previously suggested that comics should be encouraged as reading materials in schools because they are a way of getting children reading more generally. Reading comics also helps the development of visual literacy which is becoming increasingly important in modern society. And the storylines themselves encourage a number of positive core values: doing good, supporting the underdog, resisting unfairness and fighting for justice. More specifically, The adventures of Tintin also have the advantage of allowing the possibility of more specific learning opportunities.
