King Ottokar's Sceptre
"King Ottokar's Sceptre" became the first Tintin adventure to be published for a British audience when "Eagle" serialised the comic in 1951. Here, the names of Tintin and Milou were retained, although the characters of Dupond and Dupont were renamed Thomson and Thompson; the latter two names would be adopted by translators Leslie Lonsdale-Cooper and Michael Turner when they translated the series into English for Methuen Publishing in 1958.
