Best Tintin episodes (1991 TV series) (15 books items)

"One of the weaker Tintin episodes, ‘The Black Island’ often feels repetitive and aimless, and occasionally the characters seem to lack logic, but some thrilling sequences nevertheless keep it mildly entertaining."

"From his luxurious seat at Marlinspike Hall, Hergé's tufted, virtually sexless reporter investigates mysteries ranging from the criminal (counterfeiting) to the science fictional (a mysterious meteorite that causes things to grow at an astounding rate), in the company of a drunken ex-sailor, a half-cracked scientific genius, two identical bumbling detectives, and of course his white, apparently sentient dog Snowy. Tintin is a weird mix of comedy, mystery and adventure — you never quite know "

"Tintin follows the trail of an airplane that he encountered in Belgium. The passengers in the plane were not very pleasant and shoot him as he tries to help. Once he recovers, he follows their trail all the way to Scotland and uncovers a criminal conspiracy. The story is very much like a Hitchcock or film noir mystery and moves along at a fast pace. Interestingly, this book had three different versions. I seem to have read the third version as described in this article."
