When Tintin and travel to with Professor Alembick they find themselves mixed up in a rebel plot to depose the Syldavian king. If the king does not carry King Ottokar's sceptre in the royal procession he will lose his throne, and when the rebels manage to steal the sceptre the detectives Thomson and Thompson are called in. The situation is critical, but in an all-night chase over the mountains an adventurous trip by airplane, Tintin and Snowy come to the rescue. [Aaron Remick] Trivia. Cameos: Page 38, last frame: Hergé (in green uniform) is seen on the left hand side with E. P. Jacobs (in red top). Page 59, last frame: Hergé (right hand side of frame, in green), his wife Germaine (in purple), Jacobs (in front of Germaine, with monocle) and Van Melkebeke (left hand side near window, white bow tie). It is odd that Tintin does not notice that he has dropped the Sceptre as it is made of pure gold and must be somewhat heavy. [TT] The dictator is called Müsstler, which is a combination of Mussolini and Hitler. [BP, p.62] The text on the police station is in Cyrillic and translates to "GENDARMASKAIA". [TT] The original title of the book was going to be "Tintin en Syldavie" ("Tintin in Syldavia"). Hergé then changed it to "Le Sceptre d'Ottokar IV" ("The Sceptre of Ottokar IV"), but his publisher objected because it was less commercial, difficult to remember, and "almost impossible to pronounce" (in French). An agreement was eventually reached, and the title became "Le Sceptre d'Ottokar". [PA] Hergé wanted to have a colour double-spread of the Battle of Zileheroum, but due to the cost required for such an idea, it was abandoned. [PA] The cover of the black and white edition of the book was going to have the sceptre and the armour printed in gold, with Tintin's hair yellow. However, wanted to colour Tintin's hair brown (like his raincoat) to keep the number of colours used for printing down to four. Hergé was very much opposed to this—"Tintin has always had fair hair, and it would be a commerical mistake to give him brown hair, and also make him less recognisble." Ultimately, the sceptre and armour was printed in yellow—like Tintin's hair. [PA] When a man tries to take Tintin's picture, the click of the camera is heard when Tintin is still on the landing of the stairs. But curiously, the photograph shows Tintin in the middle of the stairs. [ET] In frame 1 on page 6, there is an empty chair next to Tintin. The chair disappears in frames 2 and 4, but reappears in frame 5. On page 7, Tintin reads that conquered Syldavia in the 11th century, but the tourist brochure states that the year is 1195 (12th century). On page 30, frame 10, the fresco to the right hand side of the door features 5 figures. In the last frame of page 41, the same fresco shows 6 figures. Musstler, the villain of King Ottokar's Sceptre, does not appear in the story at all; reader Anthony Durrant wonders whether Hergé got this idea from Sir Arthur Conan Doyle's Sherlock Holmes novel, The Valley of Fear.

( The Wall Street Journal ) I'm an avid fan of Tintin. Growing up, these stories captured my imagination, inspired me to travel the globe and to have adventures of my own. ( Frank Gardner, 'Tintin's Adventure with Frank Gardner', BBC Two, 2011 ) I became enthralled with the way Hergé told his stories. Grand, epic, global adventures about a young reporter who goes all around the world looking for stories to tell.

The story starts with Tintin finding a lost briefcase and returns it to the owner, Professor Hector Alembick, who is a sigillographer, an expert on seals and who the same day would go to the International Sigillographical Congress. He then shows Tintin his personal collection of seals, including one which belonged to the Syldavian King Ottokar IV. Tintin then notices that both he and Alembick are under surveillance. Tintin's flat is even bombed in an attempt to kill him. Suspecting a Syldavian connection, Tintin offers to accompany Alembick to Syldavia via Frankfurt and Prague for research. A package is delivered to Tintin's apartment. Thompson and Thomson take custody of it, as Tintin was out, and decide to open it. The two were almost killed as the package actually contained a bomb. Tintin and the Thompsons gave chase to the culprits, but were unsuccessful in their pursuit. Tintin's suspicions were further aroused when, while speaking to Alembeck on the phone and hears a cry for help and the sounds of a struggle. He rushed to Alembeck's apartment only to find an undisturbed professor packing his clothes for the trip in preparation for their trip. Sporovitch (right) and the other agent behind the bomb plot, were alarmed that Tintin had survived the explosion. After boarding the plane Tintin begins to suspect his companion. The Alembick travelling with him does not smoke and doesn't seem to need the spectacles he wears, while the Alembick he first met smoked and had very poor eyesight. During a layover, Tintin fakes a fall and grabs Alembick's beard, thinking it is false and Alembick is an imposter. However, it is in fact real beard. Tintin subsequently decides to let the matter drop but then, while flying over Syldavia, it is the pilot of the plane who opens a trap door and Tintin drops out, landing in a haywagon. Tintin begins to suspect that there is a plot afoot to steal the sceptre of King Ottokar IV. In Syldavia, the reigning King must possess the sceptre to rule or he will be forced to abdicate, a tradition established after a past king used the sceptre to defeat a would-be assassin. Every year, he is obliged to ride in a parade on St. Vladimir's Day carrying it, while the people sing the national anthem. Tintin succeeds in warning the reigning King Muskar XII, despite the efforts of the conspirators. He and the King rush to the royal treasure room in Kropow Castle only to find Alembick, the royal photographer and some guards unconscious and the sceptre missing. The picture of Ottokar IV's sceptre in a travel brochure. Detectives Thomson and Thompson are summoned to investigate but their theory on how the sceptre was stolen — the thief throwing the sceptre through the iron bars over the window — proves to be incorrect. Tintin looks out the window, and when looking down sees the castle's cannons. Then he gets an idea. Professor Alembick had asked for some photographs to be taken of the sceptre, but the camera was a spring cannon in disguise, which allowed him to shoot the sceptre out of the castle through the window bars into a nearby forest. While searching in the forest, Tintin spots the sceptre being found by agents of the neighbouring country of Borduria. He pursues them all the way to the border and manages to wrestle the sceptre from them. In the wallet of one of the thieves he discovers papers that show that the theft of the sceptre was just part of a major plan for a coup d'etat in Syldavia by their long-time political rival, Borduria.Tintin steals a Me-109 from a Bordurian airfield (whose squadron is being kept ready to take part in the envisioned "Anschluss" of Syldavia) to fly it back to the King in time. He is shot down by the Syldavians who have naturally opened fire on an enemy aircraft violating their airspace. He lands safely enough and manages to make the rest of the journey to the capital Klow on foot. Meanwhile the Interior Minister informs the King that rumours have been spreading that the sceptre has been stolen and that there have been riots against local Bordurian businesses, acts which would justify a Bordurian takeover of the country. The King is about to abdicate when Snowy runs in with the sceptre (which had fallen out of Tintin's pocket) and gives it to the King. Tintin then gives the King the papers he took from the man who stole the sceptre. They prove that the plot was masterminded by Müsstler, leader of the Zyldav Zentral Revolutzionär Komitzät, a political organisation. The King takes action by having Müsstler and his associates arrested and the army mobilised along the Bordurian frontier. In response, the Bordurian leader pulls his own troops back from the border, though he stresses his own country's "desire for peace" and criticises Syldavia's "strange" behaviour (in the same room is a map and details of the planned invasion of Syldavia). The next day, St. Vladimir's Day, Tintin is made a Knight of the Order of the Golden Pelican, the nations highest honour. snowy receives a small green ribbon. They are the first non-Syldavians to receive such an award. Further inquiries by the authorities reveal that, in a classic Ruritanian plot device, Professor Alembick is one of a pair of identical twins: Hector Alembick was kidnapped and replaced with his brother Alfred who left for Syldavia in his place, who did not smoke and did not wear glasses, thus proving Tintin's suspicions of an imposter. The King displaying the sceptre during the annual parade on St Vladimir's Day from within his carriage. Following this, Tintin and Snowy return home by a flying boat with Thomson and Thompson, who suffer momentary panic when the aircraft appears to be falling into the sea at the end of the flight. The reader is treated to a rare "wink to the camera" from Tintin, who points out their error, and they laugh about it so much that they do indeed fall into the sea as they disembark.
