-Without Being reactionary, I did not understand it to Jeans Tintin passage. Why not a banana and a perfecto for that matter? Although not a supporter of this "sport (?) Of Scottish misogynist" I think Tintin is inseparable from her knickers. And then John Brown, is top-sucks, right?
-Hergé Was at the time enthusiast of modern art, but he has abused in the sets, I find that this date and weighed the album, and the phylacteries "musical" (already encountered in the "Jewels") that suffocate
literally boxes.
-The Boards or involved the Turlurons are hideous, garish, too often repeated characters ...
-The Drawing some faces (Haddock, Alcazar) is like "virilised". Hergé he has just drawn or his assistants (Bob de Moor, Martin) did they also participated in the characters?
-The Gag temperance stamps did a little fizzle, and this anti-alcohol crusade that persists in successive governments, swells a little (being enologist, I am perhaps no position to talk about?).
-The Character Peggy is not the most successful, aside from priceless castafiore, Hergé has never excelled in painting the female environment.
-The Title of the album is not very suitable and is cheap exoticism.
So much for the form. For background, we feel that over ten years have passed since Flight 714, and one wonders if Hergé still believes in his characters, his denunciation of banana republics is lukewarm, and Alcazar Che Guevara smuggling borders on the ridiculous. The tragicomic tone of the "Affair," for example has disappeared and by the time you'd have to do with a pastiche.
So the question arises, "the issue" for all Tintin: should we have to continue after the death of Tintin Hergé? A reading of this album that looks like a recovery, you might say yes! Obviously Hergé had opposed it, but when you see the following mercantile assumed by rights holders (pillowcases, rocket 800 euros) it is said that a recovery test was a lesser evil! But those who could have done with more legitimacy died or not draw (Bob de Moor, J. Martin).
I know that the issue divides (and still divide?) Fans, but for me, the curiosity wins.
So do not despair, who knows?
