Andy Morgan was originally an Interpol agent and is now experiencing his adventures as the owner of the yacht Cormoran, with which he travels the oceans. The comical supporting role is the old sea dog Barney Jordan, the identification figure for the young readers is the orphan boy Djinn, who is called Ali in the German version.

background

Greg wrote the stories for Tintin , where he was also editor-in-chief. He handed the drawing part to the young Hermann , who also worked as an author on some short stories. Since there was already a detective series in Tintin with Rick Master , Andy Morgan became a pure adventure series. After a few short stories, longer adventures gradually emerged. In 1978, Hermann gave the series to Dany , who continued to draw until 1989. After all, Edouard Aidans was responsible for the drawings between 1992 and 1994. Greg died in 1999 and Hermann returned to the series as a writer with his son Yves H. in 2010 and released a new album.
