Il existe une version achevée de Tintin et l'Alph-Art d'Yves Rodier. Assez bonne et fidèle à l'esprit d'Hergé que ce soit autant en dessins que niveau histoire.
I noticed there were at least two different pages there that weren't in the published edition... I would love the opportunity to see all of the paper work Hergé left for it. I mean he did various sketches for Endeddine Akass and Henri Fourcart, but there's very little for Martine Vandezande and Ramó Nash. In fact, most people today when they draw Martine, it's nearly always the Rodier version. Considering it's said that there were HUNDREDS of documents for Alph-Art, I would personally love to see the different materials collected for the book. It would just be nice to try and look into Hergé's mind as he worked on it. His "whim of the moment", as he would call it.
@@Alice0s Rodier's artwork was a little inconsistent and below Hergé's quality in places. He's improved a great deal since then; his recent Tintin artwork is so good it's hard to distinguish it from Hergé's. I wonder if he'd consider redoing it.
Just imagine how heartbreaking would it be if Tintin would actually die at the ending. Even, if the following events wouldn't be shown, it would hurt to think about them. Snowy would howl himself to death (just as he says in the Cigars of Pharaon), Haddock would be blaming himself...
