A critical and personal review of each of the 24 Tintin volumes. In this episode, I review The Seven Crystal Balls and give my own thoughts on the history of the book, it's art and the context of the time it was created, including... Herge's mastery of his Ligne Claire style, during this high point of the Tintin series, Captain Haddock's affectation as "Lord of the Manor" and chronological and geographical contradictions of the English language translation.
