Visually appealing and quality book
This is a beautiful and quality book with excellent reproductions of Herge's artwork. If you're mostly interested in a single volume showing the progression of his art in a visually appealing way, you shouldn't be disappointed.

High-Quality Art, Worthless Writing
If you're interested in looking at large, detail shots of Hergé's work, this book is perfect. It contains pencil roughs, color proofs, and finished panels on full sized spreads. However, the writing is full of weak interpretations and metaphors (such as Haddock being a prophet who leads Tintin to the "light from in high.") The writer attempts to find depth where there is none, while ignoring the abundance of territory that is available (Chang barely receives a paragraph of discussion.) Note: the text IS translated, but the same translator worked on Philippe Goddin's books, which are excellent, so don't blame the messenger.So if you want beautiful art, this is an amazing resource, with high-quality pages and clear images. But the writing is a painful dose of philosophical, academic fluff that sacrifices genuine analysis in favor of showing off vocabulary.

Amazing Retro Fun!
When life is chaos I sit down with comics. Just a tiny bit of escape. This is a nice thick book, illustrations are spot on and totally funny. Love it.

FAB
Bought this as a gift for my Mum, who is a huge Tintin fan. This went with a trip to the Somerset House exhibition (where the book was £10 more expensive) and we loved both.
