Jack Dalton

Jack Dalton is one of the bumbling outlaw Dalton brothers who clash repeatedly with sharpshooter Lucky Luke in the classic Franco-Belgian western comedy series. He rides alongside siblings Joe, William, and Averell as part of the notorious gang.

Jack Dalton rides into the world of Lucky Luke as part of the rowdy Dalton gang's orbit, first appearing in a 1974 Bronze Age Swedish-market edition brought to life by the legendary creative team of René Goscinny and Morris, with Veronica Schildt-Bendjelloul. Across nearly two decades of appearances in Scandinavian Lucky Luke publications — Lucky Lukes äventyr, Lucky Luke klassiker, and Luckyserien — Jack keeps lively company with the likes of William, Averell, Joe Dalton, and Lucky Luke himself. With 11 catalog appearances spread across 19 years, he's a recurring face in this beloved Franco-Belgian Western universe as it found its enthusiastic Nordic readership. For collectors of Scandinavian comics editions, Jack Dalton is a charming piece of the puzzle in tracing how Lucky Luke's wild frontier adventures were packaged and cherished far beyond their original French-language roots.
