Description

In this thrilling installment of "The Adventures of Tintin," our intrepid reporter Tintin, along with his loyal dog Snowy and the ever-spirited Captain Haddock, find themselves embroiled in a high-stakes game of espionage. When their friend, the brilliant but absent-minded Professor Calculus, invents a groundbreaking ultrasonic device, he becomes the target of sinister forces from the fictional countries of Borduria and Syldavia. As Tintin and his friends race against time to rescue Calculus and prevent his invention from falling into the wrong hands, they navigate a web of intrigue, danger, and political tension. "The Calculus Affair" is a masterful blend of action, humor, and suspense, showcasing Hergé's signature storytelling and detailed artwork.
