ASTROCOHORS CLUB No. 029: The Castafiore Emerald

Image
"The Castafiore Emerald" (French: "Les Bijoux de la Castafiore") is the twenty-first volume of "The Adventures of Tintin", the comics series by Belgian cartoonist Hergé. It was serialised weekly from July 1961 to September 1962 in Tintin magazine. In contrast to the previous Tintin books, Hergé deliberately broke the adventure formula he had created: it is the only book in the series where the characters remain at Marlinspike Hall, Captain Haddock's family estate, and neither travel abroad nor confront dangerous criminals. The plot concerns the visit of the opera singer Bianca Castafiore and the subsequent theft of her emerald.

Featuring characters from "The Adventures of Tintin" comic book series written and drawn by the Belgian writer-artist HergĂ©, it was a live-action film with actors made-up to look like the characters and featured an original storyline not based on any of the books. The film is set in Turkey and Greece with the main characters of Tintin and Captain Haddock searching for treasure after inheriting a ship called the Golden Fleece.  The movie "Tintin and the Golden Fleece" can be ordered from AMAZON.com via this link: https://amzn.to/3eBAb45 (Sponsored Link - see more Infos below) ASTROCOHORS CLUB on the internet: Website: http://www.astrocohors.club Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/ASTRO
