#10 The Crab with the Golden Claws

In this episode, we crack open The Crab with the Golden Claws, the gritty seafaring adventure that changed the Tintin series forever - by introducing none other than Captain Haddock! What starts as a mystery involving a drowned sailor and strange crab tins quickly spirals into a globe-trotting investigation of a vast drug-smuggling operation. We’ll dig into how this book resets the tone of the series, the chaotic brilliance of Haddock’s debut, and the noir-like atmosphere that gives this story its edge.
