The cover prominently displays the title \"tintin\" in red typography on a yellow background, immediately recognizable by fans of Franco-Belgian comic books. The illustration features the character \"Michael Logan\", with the mention \"the unleashed sparrow\", as well as a complete episode titled \"Mercenaries of the Sky: Satan Leads the Dance\".\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eOn the lower part of the cover, a dynamic scene depicts a blue and white seaplane (registered \"BTC - XM-LVI\") flying over a rough sea, with waves in the foreground and palm trees leaning in the wind in the background, enhancing the adventurous atmosphere. The layout, vibrant colors, and graphic style are typical of the late 1970s and reflect the dynamism of youth press of that era.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eIn the upper right, the mentions \"N° 34\/78th year - N° 154\" and \"28-78\" in the lower left allow this issue to be precisely dated to 1978. The spine of the magazine shows a slight curve, and the cover appears well-preserved with no tears or apparent missing parts on the visible side. The corners show slight signs of wear, common for a magazine of this age.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe cover also mentions the target audience: \"Weekly for super-young people from 7 to 77 years old\", an emblematic slogan of Tintin magazine. The publishing information on the left (\"Belgian Edition\", \"France: 4.5 F\", \"Switzerland: 2.3 FS\") recalls the international distribution of the title at the time.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe cover's graphics, saturated colors, and illustrated composition are characteristic of the 1970s Tintin edition, at the crossroads of classic Franco-Belgian style and a more contemporary pop aesthetic. Only the front cover is visible in the photo; no details of the back or interior are described here.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eCondition\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eUsed item, sold as is.
