Richard:

an English hardcover edition is slated for release in April next year

Oh, thanks for the update on that! That's good to hear!

RedVictory356:

I wonder if they will use the older translation by Leslie Lonsdale-Cooper and Michael Turner

Another interesting question - as it's coming from Farshore, it's possible that they will go with the "original", as they own that...? It would be my preferred option too.

Yes, I have had it confirmed to me by Farshore that it is indeed the MT&LL-C translation which will be used in the new colour edition!

That's great news! Now if they only use the original hand lettering from the black and white edition too, there'll be one very happy Tintinologist here.

Another update: a paperback edition is now scheduled for release in July.

Is it my imagination or is this moving backwards in the schedule? It says September 2024 now whereas I'm sure it was... well, earlier? Still no sign of any other details but if this is shifting I suppose there's no hurry to fill in the gaps in our knowledge.

(Google books has 4 July for publication)

Edit: Ah, literally the post above this has that earlier date!
