Die avonture van Kuifie (Frans: Les Aventures de Tintin et Milou)
is een van die gewildste strokiesverhale wat in die twintigste eeu
verskyn en is vandag steeds populêr. Die boeke word in ongeveer 60
tale vertaal. Die hoofkarakter van die verhale is die jong Belgiese
verslaggewer Kuifie. Saam met sy hond, Spokie, beleef hy verskeie
avonture.
Die eerste verhaal van Kuifie verskyn op 10 Januarie 1929 as ’n
bylae tot die Franstalige Brusselse koerant Le Vingtième Siècle.
Hergé skryf en teken in die tydperk tussen 1929 en 1976 23
strokiesverhale (die 24ste verhaal bly onvoltooi).
In Kuifie in Amerika reis Kuifie en Spokie na Chicago om die stad
se bendes vas te trek. Met sy aankoms kry hy reeds te doen met die
berugte Al Capone en twee van sy trawante. Hy ontmoet ook Capone se
teenstander, die bendeleier Bobby Smiles.
Die bendes doen alles in hulle vermoë om hom te stuit: Hulle
probeer hom vergiftig en verdrink, ontvoer vir Spokie en oortuig
die Indiane in ’n nabygeleë reservaat dat Kuifie hulle vyand is.
Sal Kuifie die stryd teen die bendes wen of gaan hy en Spokie in
die Slift-fabriek se blikkieskos opeindig?

Three families, two worlds and one magical portal. No one comes to
the second world on purpose. The portal between worlds only opens
when least expected. But the Raft King is determined to change
that. He needs Pip, a boy with an amazing gift. Pip's is just the
first of three tales, linking the twins Venus and Swimmer, captured
from a slave ship in the first world, and Thanh and his sister
Sang, from a later time, escaping postwar Vietnam. What connects
these three sets of siblings is the adventure of a lifetime, some
helpful sea monsters and a very special crack in the sea.
