Haddock’s 80th Birthday! - Tintin

Claws, and it’s a less than promising beginning. Although nominally the captain of his vessel, Karaboudjan, Haddock is in fact in thrall to his first mate, Allan Thompson, who keeps him topped up with whisky while plying his nefarious trade of smuggling opium in crab meat tins.In the first reference to Haddock, Allan Thompson exclaims: ‘The Captain?... What does he want, the old drunkard?’ – and, sure enough, when Tintin is catapulted into his cabin shortly afterwards, Haddock has glass in hand. In the rest of the adventure, Haddock’s drinking is an ever-present danger, whether setting fire to the oars of a lifeboat, or visualising Tintin as a bottle of Champagne when addled by the desert sun.Ripping yarns: Haddock is central to two of the most famous Tintin adventuresBut, by the end of the book, Tintin has saved the day, and saved the Captain in the process, earning in return a lifelong friend and a wholly loyal, if still colourful, companion. Indeed, in The Secret of the Unicorn and Red Rackham’s Treasure, Haddock and his family history are central to the plot. Hergé ranked the former among his best work; the latter remains the best-selling Tintin adventure.In the broader literary sense, Haddock also saves Tintin. The boy reporter’s relative blankness – quiff and minimally drawn facial features, quiet determination – requires some surrounding colour, which Haddock amply provides. In Tintin: The Complete Companion, Michael Farr writes:‘Haddock was the very opposite of Tintin. While the reporter was sober and sensible, Haddock Plot involves Tintin travelling to Istanbul to collect the Golden Fleece, a ship left to Haddock in the will of his friend, Themistocle Paparanic. Whilst in the city however, Tintin and Haddock discover that a group of villains also want possession of the ship, believing that it would lead them to a hidden treasure.[112]Tintin and the Blue Oranges (Tintin et les oranges bleues) (1964), the second live action Tintin film, was released due to the success of the first. Again based upon an original script, once more by André Barret, it was directed by Philippe Condroyer and starred Talbot as Tintin and Jean Bouise as Haddock.[113] The plot reveals a new invention, the blue orange, that can grow in the desert and solve world famines, devised by Calculus' friend, the Spanish Professor Zalamea. An emir whose interests are threatened by the invention of the blue orange proceeds to kidnap both Zalamea and Calculus, and Tintin and Haddock travel to Spain in order to rescue them.[113]Tintin and the Temple of the Sun (Tintin et le temple du soleil) (1969), the first traditional animation Tintin film, was adapted from two of Hergé's Adventures of Tintin: The Seven Crystal Balls and Prisoners of the Sun. The first full-length, animated film from Raymond Leblanc's Belvision, which had recently completed its television series based upon the Tintin stories; it was directed by Eddie Lateste and featured a musical score by the critically acclaimed composer François Rauber. The adaptation is mostly faithful, although the Seven Crystal Balls portion of the story was heavily condensed.[113]Tintin and the Lake of Sharks (Tintin et le lac aux requins) (1972), the second traditional animation Tintin film and the last Tintin release for nearly 40 years, it was based on an original script by Greg and directed by Raymond Leblanc.[114] Belvision's

His best story; Red Rackham’s Treasure has, meanwhile, sold more copies than any other single adventure.”So what makes this so special? Everything, starting with the first panel, a news piece that is alerting the readers to the presence of a pickpocket around town. Just this alone plays out throughout the entire adventure, with wallets going missing left and right.I love the model ship at the Old Street Market, the sheer stupidity of the Thom(p)sons, the story of the meeting between Sir Francis Haddock and Red Rackham, and the introduction of Marlinspike Hall (Moulinsart in the original French). We are also introduced to Nestor, a recurring and beloved character who is the butler at Marlinspike Hall.origin-belgian topic-tintin type-graphic-novel101 reviews698 followersDecember 11, 2015And so I reach quintessential Tintin in my Tintin read through.The plot line will be quite familiar to those who have seen the Spielberg/Jackson film as it forms the basis for the first part of the story. Tintin purchases a model ship as a gift to Captain Haddock and is surprised when two people immediately show great interest in his purchase. Tintin refuses their offers and takes the ship home. He later finds that his apartment has been broken into and the ship stolen. Tintin tries to track the people who are interested down and an adventure with very close connections to Captain Haddock begins.While not as funny as other adventures, The Secret of the Unicorn delivers on the mystery and intrigue. And it relies much less on coincidence that other Tintin stories, but still a lot more than your average story. Captain Haddock plays a large role here and is as funny as ever, and there is plenty of Thompson and Thomson, but they do not do their charming mis-clarifications sadly. This story leads into the next, and is even obviously stated by Tintin in the last panel breaking the fourth wall. The mystery is mainly solved. The location of the treasure is known. Now it's time to find it!childrens graphic-novels570 reviews688 followersJune 11, 2020This is one of my most loved adventures of Tintin. The story is well written with good adventure and interesting characters. It is a quick-paced adventure with good suspense. The additional mystery of the puzzle over the parchments which was believed to be a clue to a treasure buried in the sea with the relics of the "Unicorn" added further excitement. The humor almost always achieved at the expense of either the Thompson duo or Captain Haddock completed the enjoyment of this interesting story. The Secret of the Unicorn is one of the best books in the Tintin series. I've read this I don't know how many times as a child, but it still fascinates. Mergers.

Archibald Haddock - Tintin - POSTAVY.cz

A life of its ownShortly afterwards, a drunken space walk has almost fatal consequences, leading to a stream of self-pity from the repentant Haddock:‘I… I’m a miserable wretch… I had a drink… It’s unpardonable… I’m terribly sorry.’In The Red Sea Sharks, the villainly Allan Thompson returns, prompting an episode that recalls The Crab with the Golden Claws: waking in his cabin, Haddock sees a (painstakingly accurate) bottle of Haig’s Gold Label whisky sitting on the table, a glass already poured to tempt him.These struggles aside, and despite a propensity for warning people not to fall over hidden obstacles, only to do so himself, Haddock proves himself time and again a faithful companion to Tintin, most notably when offering to lay down his life for his friend, high in the Himalayas, in Tintin in Tibet – a book described by Hergé as ‘a song dedicated to friendship’.There is also the question of what Haddock drinks. While fond of rum – he is a seafarer, after all – whisky is his first love; specifically – and despite the references to Haig – Loch Lomond whisky, which crops up throughout the books.In fact, whisky in Tintin predates Haddock’s first appearance. During The Black Island, in which Tintin and Snowy travel to Scotland, a rail tanker of whisky is featured, emblazoned with the words ‘Johnnie Walker Whisky’.However, in a later edition of 1966, when Hergé’s English publisher Methuen requested a number of changes to modernise the story, the name on the tanker has been Dull – Tintin.In Tintin and the Secret of Literature, Tom McCarthy writes:‘It is into irony’s orbit that the Captain is dragged throughout Hergé’s work, and with him is dragged the rest of the world of the Tintin books. He longs for redemption, but finds that every door that purports to offer him this merely leads – if it is a real door at all – into a wider world that is itself a testament to his inauthenticity.’Authentic or not, Haddock certainly offers humanity as a character, one whose vulnerability is accentuated by his love for whisky, but not defined by it. As Farr says:‘It is not Haddock’s fondness for the bottle or his human fallibility which makes him the most endearing of characters in the Tintin adventures, it is his irascibility and his unlimited and wonderfully irrelevant repertoire of expletives.’Put simply, Haddock is fun. Larger-than-life, a comic tool, but one that never forfeits our sympathy or warmth. If McCarthy is right in saying that Hergé’s ‘stupendously rich’ characters ‘…rival any dreamt up by Dickens or Flaubert for sheer strength and depth of personality’ – then Captain Archibald Haddock is the finest achievement of the Belgian author’s art.

Famed for his explosive outbursts and accident-prone nature, Captain Archibald Haddock is Tintin’s loyal companion for many of the young reporter’s greatest adventures. He is also more than fond of a drop of whisky, as Richard Woodard discovers. Almost exactly 90 years ago, an idealistic boy reporter with a distinctive quiff made his comic strip debut in Le Petit Vingtième, the children’s supplement of a Belgian daily newspaper. Tintin, accompanied by his faithful dog Snowy, was the creation of Georges Remi, who took his initials, reversed them and fashioned a pen-name based on their Francophone pronunciation: Hergé.In the decades since then, the Tintin books have sold well over 100 million copies worldwide, and have been translated into more than 50 languages, including Esperanto and Latin. Among Hergé’s cast of unforgettable characters, perhaps the most memorable and popular is Captain Archibald Haddock, Tintin’s faithful, accident-prone and emotionally volatile companion – and whisky plays a vital role in his back-story.Why the name Haddock? There are several theories, and there was more than one seafaring Haddock in real life, including Herbert James Haddock, who skippered the Titanic during technical trials, and was then captain of its sister ship, Olympic.Perhaps the most attractive explanation, however, stems from an evening when Hergé is said to have asked his first wife, Germaine, what was for dinner. ‘Haddock,’ she replied, before adding a description of it as ‘a sad English fish’.We meet Captain Haddock for the first time in Tintin’s ninth adventure, The Crab with the Golden

Captain Haddock's and Tintin's relationship

One of the earliest appearing in Belgian newspaper La Patrie after the liberation of the country from Nazi German occupation in September 1944. Entitled Tintin au pays de nazis ("Tintin in the Land of the Nazis"), the short and crudely drawn strip lampoons Hergé for working for a Nazi-run newspaper during the occupation.[149]Following Hergé's death, hundreds more unofficial parodies and pastiches of the Adventures of Tintin were produced, covering a wide variety of different genres.[148] Tom McCarthy divided such works into three specific groupings: pornographic, political, and artistic.[150] In a number of cases, the actual name "Tintin" is replaced by something similar, like Nitnit, Timtim, or Quinquin, within these books.[148]McCarthy's first group, pornographic parodies, includes 1976's Tintin en Suisse ("Tintin in Switzerland") and Jan Bucquoy's 1992 work La Vie Sexuelle de Tintin ("Tintin's Sex Life"), featuring Tintin and the other characters engaged in sexual acts.[151] Another such example was Tintin in Thailand, in which Tintin, Haddock, and Calculus travel to the East Asian country for a sex holiday. The book began circulating in December 1999, but in 2001, Belgian police arrested those responsible and confiscated 650 copies for copyright violation.[152]Other parodies have been produced for political reasons: for instance, Tintin in Iraq lampoons the world politics of the early 21st century, with Hergé's character General Alcazar representing President of the United States George W. Bush.[148] Written by the pseudonymous Jack Daniels, Breaking Free (1989) is a revolutionary socialist comic set in Britain during the 1980s, with Tintin and his uncle (modelled after Captain Haddock) being working class Englishmen who turn to socialism in order to oppose the capitalist policies of the Conservative Party government of Margaret Thatcher. When first published in Britain, it caused an outrage in the mainstream press, with one paper issuing the headline that "Commie nutters turn
