In this exciting adventure, Tintin travels to the heart of Africa to report, unaware that unexpected dangers and challenges await him. Accompanied by his faithful dog Snowy, Tintin faces mysterious enemies and risky situations in the exotic Congo jungle. This album, created by Hergé, is a testimony of the European vision of Africa in colonial times and has been the subject of controversy for its representations. Despite this, it remains an important part of the history of comics and a sample of the narrative talent of its author.
Georges Prosper Remi, known by the pen name Hergé, from the French pronunciation of his reversed initials RG, was a Belgian comic strip artist. He is best known for creating The Adventures of Tintin, the series of comic albums that are considered one of the most popular European comics of the 20th century. He was also responsible for two other well-known series, Quick & Flupke (1930–1940) and The Adventures of Jo, Zette and Jocko (1936–1957). His works were executed in his distinctive ligne claire drawing style.
