![]() Georges Prosper Remi ( – 3 March 1983), better known by the pen name Hergé, was a Belgian comics writer and artist. The Secret of the Unicorn and its sequel, Red Rackham’s Treasure, are two of the best-loved Tintin books of all time. ![]() For Tintin and Captain Haddock - as well as a gang of crooks - the treasure hunt is well and truly on! Tintin’s flat is ransacked and a mysterious collector seems determined to buy the model ship. It tells the story of Sir Francis’s run-in with a fearsome pirate, Red Rackham, and also describes a priceless treasure. While looking through an old chest found in his attic, Captain Haddock chances upon the diary of his ancestor. The ship appears to be a model of a vessel depicted in the background of a painting of the captain’s illustrious ancestor, Sir Francis Haddock. The captain is overjoyed but astonished to receive Tintin’s gift. Little does he realize, the ship will prove to be the key to an exciting (and very dangerous) adventure. While looking around the Old Street Market, Tintin stumbles across a model ship and buys it as a gift for his friend, Captain Haddock. ![]()
