This was the very first Tintin book I ever got my hands on. So there&#8217;s nostalgic attachment to it.
Published in 1936, the squabbling countries make speeches to&#8230; The League of Nations! Funnily enough, there&#8217;s not mention of communism, at all. But I suppose that wasn&#8217;t so much on the public radar until <a href='http://www.thewordofgit.com/readingbackwards/2009/09/the-blue-lotus/'>[...]</a>]]></description>

Rating: Transitional
One can definitely feel the transitional quality of this volume. It FEELS like a Tintin book, but the story is quite choppy, and for good reason&#8211;originally, it was running as a serial. There is a consistent story arc, but it&#8217;s not like later books where everything is geared toward that one <a href='http://www.thewordofgit.com/readingbackwards/2009/09/the-cigars-of-the-pharoah/'>[...]</a>]]></description>

I now know why this volume confused the hell out of me as a kid.
Firstly, it&#8217;s the first in the series, as published widely, but it&#8217;s technically the third book. So there are references to Tintin&#8217;s past adventures, and he has a hell of a reputation. Such a strong reputation that <a href='http://www.thewordofgit.com/readingbackwards/2009/09/tintin-in-america/'>[...]</a>]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[A note, in case anyone should care.
I believe that comics are a wholly valid artform, and can be amazing pieces of literature. I also acknowledge that one page of a graphic novel isn&#8217;t necessarily equal to one page of prose, as far as &#8216;amount.&#8217; Maybe &#8216;mass&#8217; is the word I want?

		<description><![CDATA[When I was very young, our town had an Encore books. It was a special kind of bliss, because it was like the library, but all the books were new. It&#8217;s from this book store that I got my set of the Chronicles of Narnia. I spent hours browsing their selection of Babysitters Club volumes. <a href='http://www.thewordofgit.com/readingbackwards/2009/08/tintin-au-twenty-first-century/'>[...]</a>]]></description>
