After visiting Russia, Africa, the Middle East and the Far East, Tintin sets off for South America. A mysterious statue - created by the fierce South American Arumbaya tribe - has disappeared, and Tintin is not the only one looking for it. Much of the narrative plays out in San Theodoros, a banana republic constantly changing hands between corrupt dictator General Tapioca and his archrival, General Alcazar. Teeming with conspiracies and bomb plots, The Broken Ear takes Tintin on a tropical adventure, and leads him to hidden native civilizations, thieving criminals and long-lost explorers! The madcap adventure takes Tintin deep within the tropical jungle, where he narrowly avoids dangerous snakes and nearly has his head shrunk by tribal warriors. When he falls victim to a setup and is arrested as a terrorist, he is condemned to death by firing squad! However, there is a revolution on the horizon. Could it be his ticket to freedom?

The Blue Lotus is the sequel to Cigars of the Pharaoh. While Tintin is in India taking a well-earned rest, he is drawn into a dangerous mystery revolving around a madness-inducing poison. The young reporter travels to the source of the poison, Shanghai. Within the real historical context of the tensions between China and Japan during the 1930s, Tintin sets to work, unraveling a nefarious web of opium traffickers. He also meets a young Chinese boy, Chang Chong-chen, who becomes a key ally and lifelong friend. In the spring of 1934, when Herg? announced that he was sending Tintin to China, he was contacted by Father Gosset, a priest in charge of the welfare of Chinese students at Leuven University in Belgium. Father Gosset was worried that Herg? would offend Chinese people if he portrayed them in stereotypical and clich?d ways. The priest put Herg? in contact with Chang Chong-chen, a Chinese student. Chang taught the author about Eastern philosophy. With his help, Herg? carried out extensive research on China to write The Blue Lotus. (immagine) Categoria: Books: graphic novels

But his obsession with beefing up is soon derailed by a new obsession: Star Wars, the hottest thing to hit the summer of 1977. As he explores his creative outlets as well as cures to his body image woes, Mark sets out to make his own stamp on the film that he loves.Mark Tatulli's graphic novel debut is a humorous and heartfelt take on body image, finding a creative outlet, and spending a summer in the '70s.

A powerful, compulsively page-turning, vivid, and moving tribute to the experience of war and PTSD, The White Donkey tells the story of Abe, a young Marine recruit who experiences the ugly, pedestrian, and often meaningless side of military service in rural Iraq. He enlists in hopes of finding that missing something in his life but comes to find out that it's not quite what he expected. Abe gets more than he bargained for when his journey takes him to the middle east in war-torn Iraq. The White Donkey explores the experience of being a Marine, as well as the challenges that veterans face upon their return home, and its raw power will leave you in awe.
