Average customer review:Product Description
The first in a three-volume series, a selection of Herge's outstanding unpublished drawings - showing the diversity of his work and offering the reader a view of the range of his talent. Georges Remi, better known as Herge, the creator of Tintin and Snowy, was born a century ago. He left an exceptional legacy in the form of Tintin, but completed a variety of equally impressive work. This first volume covers the years 1907 to 1937 and his development as a young, promising artist - his schoolboy sketches, his first published drawings and, of course, his early comics.

If you're a Tintin fanatic, this is like your biggest fix...full of beautiful facsimile reproductions and lots of info about the art, which is what I bought it for. Not much in the way of biog - at least, pretty bland...but as I say you can't beat it for the art content. A perfect companion to a good biog that might have fewer illustrations! I'll be getting the next volume when it comes out, for sure. A collector's volume.
