Terry Teo
Description
Terry Teo is not your average schoolboy - he's a skateboarding super-sleuth about to embark on his very first adventure! When he stumbles headfirst into the criminal schemes of the villainous Ray Vegas, Terry finds himself embroiled in a dastardly gun smuggling operation. Along with his karate-chopping sister, Polly, and older brother Ted, Terry must use all his street smarts to avoid Vegas' henchmen, defeat the smugglers, and save the day! Originally released in 1982 as Terry and the Gunrunners, this distinctly local take on the Tintin graphic novel format was an instant hit with children across the nation. The popularity of the book made Terry an instantly iconic kiwi character - inspiring two sequels, and the much loved television adaptation, Terry and the Gunrunners (1985), starring Adrian Bell. .
