Rémy et Ghislaine is a Franco-Belgian comic strip drawn in a realistic style by François Craenhals .

action

Rémy et Ghislaine, the children of the inventor Henri de Bonneval, travel to Australia to find their missing father with the help of their diner William and help their uncle Ben in the United States with the extraction of oil. In both cases they have to defend themselves against shady characters.

background

François Craenhals was responsible for the adventure series, in which he was based on the stories of Charles Dickens and executed the drawings in a monochrome watercolor technique that Paul Cuvelier had already used in Corentin . Hergé praised the work for it, compared it with Paul Cuvelier's Corentin and hired Craenhals for follow-up jobs at Tintin .

The series appeared in the Belgian and French editions of Tintin between 1951 and 1952 . Le Lombard released the albums in 1955, which were republished in 1977 by publisher Michel Deligne.

reception

Volker Hamann finds Craenhal's graphic development in the work far more exciting than the story, which is interspersed with sugar-sweet naivety .
