Tintin and Asterix might be the foundation of my love of all sorts of sequential art. Like Jim said, (school) libraries, but even before that I would read the ones my maternal grandparents had (originally my uncle's, I believe). Even the ones in French, where I'd just pour over every detail of the panels. Timeless classics, I keep meaning to figure out which collection is the best and pick them up, but I never seem to get around to it.
Tintin remains my all-time favorite comic. What a master Herge was. Thanks for covering this one guys.
The thing I freaking love about Hergés "Tintin & the Alpha-Art" is how close it is to Harvey Kurtzmans layouts and how it's a brilliant source for cartoonists to see that layouts SHOULD be fast and loose because they're the first draft. And it's fascinating to see the quick sketch of layouts vs the labour intensive work because Hergé made that shit look easy.
I’ve been a Tintin fan since the early 70s, when it was serialized in Children’s Digest (I even named my ginger cat Tintin).
It’s been a decade since Spielberg’s Tintin movie and I’m STILL waiting for Peter Jackson’s follow-up, even though I’m 99% sure it will never happen.
You should check André Franquin's work. In Belgium there used to be 2 school of thoughts for comic books. The Brussel one (Represented by Tintin) and the Marcinelle one (Dupuis editions represented by Spirou)
Belgo-French BD (Bande Dessinée) Golden Age happened in the 50's and 60's.
If you like Tintin and want to check out more in this style, look into "Blake and Mortimer" by Edgar P. Jacobs. He had previously worked with Hergé on some of the Tintin books, and had actually become a good friend. Hergé's character of Bianca Castafiore, the opera singer who routinely destroys glass with her bright voice, is a joke by Hergé to tease Jacobs and his love for the opera, which Hergé didn't share.
The style is very similar to Hergé's, but has a bit more defined shadows, it's kind of a dark "Ligne claire" style.
Solid recommendation for the Herge museum in Belgium, really really amazing place. There's also a touring exhibition that's been doing the rounds all over the world (think it's in Japan ATM), but well well worth your time.
I’ve been rereading my Tintin collection, so this comes at the perfect time!
As a Brit, I remember being 9 or 10, having read How To Draw Comics The Marvel way and rolling around art shops asking for “11x17 Bristol boards” having the exactly the opposite experience 😂
I love this so much! The closer you can get me to your drawing board the better. Love the balance between scribbles and tighter lay outs, amazing!
there is a book (I don't know if it was published in the US) by Philippe Goddin, Hergé et les Bigotudos, that goes deep in the creation process of Tintín and the Picaros. Lots of notes, drafts, etc...
Rodier did a completed version of this book, based on Hergé's designs and layouts. I think there might be a few other artists that did that as well. Cool to see the original sketches.
I didn't come across this character until anunofficial crossover in New Teen Titans, but that still didn't put him or the artist on my radar until the 3Dish movie as an adult, and even then only the original works by some reporter showing it as background for the then upcoming movie, I think. I do know that once i did see it I fell in love with it. Had I seen the original (or the tv cartoon) as a kid it would've been a definite childhood and lifelong favorite. Its funny, exciting and peaceful all at the same time.
You guys should do a video about Ranxerox.
Wonderful! So glad to see BD on this channel !
Tin Tin is the best!
yeah we had tintin in our school libraries 2000's :)
Finally some Tintin :D
You guys are great! Thanks!!!
Thats amazing, the sketches look a lot like the comics i used to do wen I was a kid! Will try to do scripts like that!
Arrgh, just bought it ... can't watch your videos without ending up having to look for the book.
I was thinking about a less stylized (or less cartoonish) style in Ligne Claire, then I remember André Juillard and Thibert (Kaplan&Masson). It makes me think if these two are Ligne Claire artists. Like we have in Sisco (Legrain), and Tango (Philippe Xavier). Does it mean it's not Ligne Claire in these examples?
Heh. I was watching this an kept waiting for the transparency overlay page -- but it didn't show up. But I could have sworn my copy had one. But then... I went searching for my copy and couldn't find it. Turns out what I have, with the overlay, is a copy of "Het Imaginair Museum Van Kuifje" which is (I think, because it's not in English and I can't read it) a companion book for an exhibition of artworks Herge had collected and used as reference for his comics. It includes several pages breaking down the process roughest draft to basic pencils, to colours, with a transparency overlay to show how the inks are laid over the colours -- something I've never seen anywhere else. It turns out I don't have a copy of Alph-Art at all. DAMMIT.
Oh, Hell to the yeah
A4 is 8.27 x 11.69" (so - the closest to 8.5 x 11") -- but taller, which I've always found interesting.
It's funny that this series went from an anti-communist propaganda story to a story with a red star on the cover 😅
Felt like I had to watch this again,
Hearing you guys gush and be positive about a series I've loved since before I could even read will never get boring.
Ed, you'll be missed.
