Black Island (The Adventures of Tintin)
The Black Islandis an exciting and very funny tale of intrigue in which a gang of international forgers leads Tintin to the Scottish town of Kiltoch, where a dreaded beast is rumored to live.  Along the way, Tintin is framed and has to dodge the pursuit of his old detective friends Thompson and Thomson.  He also meets Dr. Müller, who would return inLand of Black Gold.The Black Islandis one of the earlier Tintin adventures, first appearing inLe Petit Vingtiemein 1937 and 1938, but it was revised and redrawn in 1966, which is why it has the more mature look of Herge's later work.--David Horiuchi--This text refers to thePaperbackedition.
