If the previous album in this series "The Yellow M" can be likened to a 1930's thriller. These 2 albums "The Mystery of the Great Pyramid" have a lot in common with the 1930's adventure serials, a style later made popular by the Lucus and Spielburg's Indiana Jones Films. As you read it you can imagine it being an a plot from an Indiana Jones film. The ever deeping mystery, the regular sequences and fights, climaxing with a mystical/supernatural final confrontation. And on that level these 2 albums really work, assisted by Jacobs beautiful artistry. As a previous reviewer has said, it lacks the humour of Tintin and the over use of Text boxes tends to slow the narrative. Despite these small complaints it is a great read.
