Le Pastiche Tintin 2: 222 'Lost' Tintins - Paperback

by John Charles Stringer (Author)

Le Pastiche Tintin 2, a second flick through

Tintin pastiches and parodies and the world of Herg .

New Zealand art historian John Stringer gathers another

222 tributes to this global comic phenomenon

(333 in vol.s 1-2).

Parodies, tributes and lampoons have mushroomed like

Shooting Star fungi since 1983 when Herg died and the

adventures ceased. Stringer draws again on hundreds of

independent works to revisit the enduring

pastiche pathology of Europe's greatest comic

(200 million copies in 70 languages).

From Star Wars to Fukushima, spellbound with Harry

Potter, in Syria, El Salvador, on Pluto or at a zoo,

spaced out on Mars, Tintin is still Breaking Free

so the adventures and mystery might continue
