Still no extras. But as a collection, this was far and a way the best so far. But still not clear if it is because Tintin got better, or I just got used to it. Land of Black Gold as an individual volume was my favorite of the series so far. But all three volumes had a little bit less of the annoying silliness. But lot's of derring-do. Still far from perfect, but pretty good. 3.5 of 5.

Was a pretty good read. Found it on the shelf and had it to read it. I still can't believe that this book was published before the actual moon landing was done. Woah.

Would I read the other books, totally.

The captain sure is a

Well, I read 2/3s or so. Explorers of the Moon kept putting me to sleep, but The Land of Black Gold was as good as I remember.

Again, fun Nostalgia. However, this was mostly on the moon. This one relied too heavily on the falling gag. Still, good fun.

Very much enjoy these collection of comics. Especially like Destination Moon and Explorers On The Moon. This was also my first introduction to Capt Haddock. Thoroughly enjoyed his "Blistering Barnacles" and other similar exclamations, such as "acting the goat" and "you anacoluthon!". Class.
