tintin


most of us have read Tintin the comics, whether the english version or in bahasa, or even french. the original version published by casterman in belgium is in french, and now we have bahasa's translation based on that very version. the one published by indira was based on english version with more familiar name to english ears' like snowy, thomson and tomson, as well as cuthbert calculus. but in the latest version published by gramedia, we won't find snowy, milo rather, dupont and dupond, and also lakmus instead of calculus. so far, i've bought eight out of 10 first publications. they all scale models of 15.5 by 22 cm just like a set of three books published by egmont. all discounted 15% from IDR45K to IDR 38,250 at Jakarta Book Fair.
