Does reading comic books count?
At worst it can act as a segway into other books.

I define that as the story line being told by pictures vs. words.
It's really both here.

Or prevent them from reading other books.

Naaah
Did you see a 3 year old try to read it without knowing how to read English?

I was under the impression that it was otherwise worth at least hundreds.
Here's the cheapest I see it now
https://www.ebay.com/itm/396362399081?mkcid=16&mkevt=1&mkrid=711-127632-2357-0&ssspo=vcixyf37sbw&sssrc=4429486&ssuid=9yVsxa2QSFW&var=&widget_ver=artemis&media=COPY
Still cheaper than the dansdeals deal

Really? Pretty sure @YitzyS posted it here for under $60 before. I bought it a couple of years ago for my kids for like $85 on Amazon.
Not because I know what it sells for. "This is an insane price" sounds like a lot more than $20 off.
I wonder what people who type "u" instead of "you" do with all their free time.

On Amazon it usually goes for 120 or more

FTR, this does not include TinTin in the Congo.

I bought it separately, not missing much imo. It's really early in the series and not so developed yet. I guess it is better than the Soviet one, and obviously better than Alpha Art which is just a bunch of initial drawings.

IINM, there are two versions of this. The original, which a just a bunch of drawings, and a full book, completed posthumously by someone else.

This set comes with the latter. Still just a waste of ink.

See the description, light(?) damage.
It says that the damage is only to the slip-case, and there are pictures. I'm assuming if that is not accurate, you can get a refund.

Just making sure the buyer is aware, I’m not saying it’s a major issue
