"My rating: artwork 1, plot 0. Again a book that only the collectors will find interesting. First published in 1931. Redrawn and published in colour in 1946."
"My rating: artwork 3, plot 1. A collection of gags that lacks the finesse of later adventures. First published in 1932. Redrawn and published in colour in 1945."
"My rating: artwork 4, plot 2. Not very wise but I like it. The pastel, cold colouring works for me. First published in 1934. Redrawn and published in colour in 1955."
"My rating: artwork 2, plot 2. Probably the most overestimated Tintin adventure. Wordy and not eye-pleasing. First published in 1936. Published in colour in 1946 (with only 4 pages redrawn)."
"My rating: artwork 2, plot 4. Engaging story, full of black humour and irony. Colours have somewhat retro look. First published in 1937. Published in colour in 1943 (it was not redrawn)."
"My rating: artwork 5, plot 5. The best artwork and great atmosphere. My favourite Tintin book. First published in 1938. Published in colour in 1943. Redrawn and published in 1966."
"My rating: artwork 3, plot 4. Good, detailed picture of Syldavia. Blotchy print of the new Egmont edition is a letdown. First published in 1939. Some parts redrawn and published in colour in 1947."
"My rating: artwork 4, plot 4. Tintin meets Haddock! A funny crime story that takes place in Morocco. First published in 1941. Redrawn and published in colour in 1943."
"My rating: artwork 3, plot 3. The story lacks the background that the other books offer. Still it is a nice action adventure that has its moments. Published in 1942. Recoloured in 1954."
"My rating: artwork 3, plot 2. Simple story about treasure hunting. Bad colouring looks even worse in the new Egmont edition because of the strong cyans and the variable saturation. Published in 1945."
"My rating: artwork 5, plot 5. A little more mysterious story could be expected after the "The Seven Crystal Balls". Nevertheless a classic Tintin adventure. Published in 1949."
"My rating: artwork 4, plot 4. Haddock appears too late but it is a quite engaging action adventure. Still rather a comedy than a thriller. Published in 1950. Some parts redrawn in 1971."
"My rating: artwork 4, plot 2. There isn't much action, just somewhat boring preparations for the flight to the moon. The conspiracy underplot could be more enigmatic and significant. Published in 1953"
"My rating: artwork 4, plot 4. The second part of this two-parter has much better, engaging plot. It lacks some cohesion but the final part make up for this to some extent. Published in 1954."
"My rating: artwork 3, plot 3. Comparing to the other adventures from the late period this book looks like it was drawn and written in a hurry. Rather a letdown. Published in 1958."
"My rating: artwork 5, plot 5. Masterpiece! A great, classic story about friendship and - deservedly - one of the most popular comic books. Published in 1960."
"My rating: artwork 4, plot 3. It is not a typical Tintin adventure. Despite its refined humour it is not exactly what I look for in Tintin books. Published in 1963."
"My rating: artwork 5, plot 4. The sci-fi ending was frequently criticised and not without a reason. Apart from that a good action-adventure book. Published in 1968."
"My rating: artwork 5, plot 3. The drawings are masterful of course but the story... Hergé was tired of Tintin and so the plot lacks the freshness. Published in 1976."
