*** This review may contain spoilers ***

After discovering the parchments, which has a compass reading of where the treasure could be located. Tintin and Captain Haddock organise a shipping party to go out and find it. This becomes big news across the world, and a professor known as Calculus. Offers them the use of his shark-shaped, one-man submarine to help search the shark infested waters. They turn him down. Joining the crew is Thompson and Thompson, who are going undercover to protect form the escape criminals who were also after the treasure. Then they notice Professor Calculus has stowed away. So the journey for Red Rackham's treasure has begun.

"Red Rackham's Treasure" is the twelfth comic strip album by Herge and filth episode of Season 1, which originally continues on from the story in "The Secret Treasure of the Unicorn". What prominently makes this entry very memorable is that it's the first appearance of the clever, but hard at hearing Professor Cuthbert Calculus. This inclusion adds a real sentimental and random air to most of the story's he written into. Most of his creations onwards become the central part of story, or lead onto something of importance. However there's a chaotic sense of madness dripping from this journey, because it pairs together Tintin's sidekicks on even ground. Scenes with Haddock and Calculus were pure gold. The freshness and chemistry streaming throughout was truly alive and zippy. This is a fun outing with humorously witty sparks injected into the bouncy situations and exotic backdrop of this surprised-filled adventure of danger and intrigue. There are some exciting under-water scenes involving Tintin and large shark. When you got the aggressive Haddock, bumbling Thompsons and unhinged Calculus together, expect nothing but fireworks. This leaves the ever reliable Tintin and his dog Snowy to come up trumps again. A neat, deft and satisfying closure to the story.
