About this Collection

This volume collects the classic Tintin adventure 'Land of Black Gold,' originally serialized in the 1940s and later revised. In the story, Tintin is drawn into a mystery involving oil sabotage in the Middle East, facing off against his old nemesis Dr. Müller. The edition features Hergé's signature ligne claire artwork and the full narrative as part of the ongoing Adventures of Tintin series published by Little, Brown.

In "Land of Black Gold," Tintin races against time in a Middle Eastern nation on the edge of chaos, where sabotaged fuel disrupts entire nations and a shadowy plot threatens to ignite war. With the help of Captain Haddock, Tintin uncovers a conspiracy in Khemed led by Müller and Bab El Ehr, who seek to exploit the region's untapped oil and destabilize the region—while holding the child prince hostage. A gripping tale of intrigue and courage, illustrated with Hergé’s signature precision and brought to life in full color by Hergé’s own cover art.
