Influence On Other Works

Aspects of the animated film Tintin and the Lake of Sharks (1972), which was not produced by Hergé himself but issued under his name, appears to borrow some elements from the Jo, Zette and Jocko adventure The Secret Ray:

  • like in The ‘Manitoba’ No Reply, two children, Niko and Nushka, attempt to escape from an underwater base in a tank-like vehicle;
  • like in The Eruption of Karamako, the underwater compound is destroyed by its evil leader in an attempt to drown his pursuers;
  • there is the interaction of children and adults during the final escape;
  • and the friends waiting above water and thinking the heroes have been killed when the compound explodes.

Famous quotes containing the words influence on, influence and/or works:

    Women stand related to beautiful nature around us, and the enamoured youth mixes their form with moon and stars, with woods and waters, and the pomp of summer. They heal us of awkwardness by their words and looks. We observe their intellectual influence on the most serious student. They refine and clear his mind: teach him to put a pleasing method into what is dry and difficult.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    Artists, whatever their medium, make selections from the abounding materials of life, and organize these selections into works that are under the control of the artist.... In relation to the inclusiveness and literally endless intricacy of life, art is arbitrary, symbolic and abstracted. That is its value and the source of its own kind of order and coherence.
    Jane Jacobs (b. 1916)
