Tintin au pays de l'or noir
"Prisoners of the Sun" was a commercial success and was published in book form by Casterman the year following its conclusion. Hergé continued "The Adventures of Tintin" with "Land of Black Gold", while the series itself became a defining part of the Franco-Belgian comics tradition. The story was adapted for the 1969 Belvision film "Tintin and the Temple of the Sun", the 1991 Ellipse/Nelvana animated series "The Adventures of Tintin", the 1992–1993 BBC Radio 5 dramatisation of the "Adventures", the 1997 video game of the same name, and a 2001 musical in Dutch and French versions.
