If you believe the Chinese, he's wanted for a 5,000 yen reward in "The Blue Lotus" (page 25)
If you believe the Americans in "Tintin in America", more than $20,500 US changes hands over Tintin's head.
$500 to the taxi driver on page 3. $6000 to the thug in the blue suit on pg 5, $3000 to the thug in the black jacket on pg 5. $1000 to the the thug in the cap, on pg 14. $5000 to the guy in the sunglasses on pg 54. $5000+ to the wannabe detective on pg 58.
Mind you, a lot of this is to *liquidate* him by any means necessary, rather than capture him per se.
I find it funny, by the way, that Snowy's ransom in this book is for $50,000 US, more than twice the price on his master's head! |
