Lucky Luke

Lucky Luke is a wandering cowboy of the American West, known as 'the man who shoots faster than his shadow.' Created by Belgian cartoonist Morris, he rides the frontier righting wrongs with his trusty horse Jolly Jumper by his side.

Few comic heroes ride as tall in the saddle as Lucky Luke, the sharp-shooting cowboy whose adventures have graced pages continuously from his 1971 debut all the way through to the present day — a remarkable 55-year run that speaks to his enduring appeal. Published by Bonniers and shaped at the outset by the legendary René Goscinny alongside Morris and Gun Bengtsson, this is a character with serious creative pedigree behind him. Across 78 catalog appearances — anchored in the Lucky Lukes äventyr / Lucky Luke klassiker series — he keeps rowdy, memorable company: the perpetually scheming Dalton brothers (Joe, Jack, William, and the lovably dim Averell) and his faithful companion Jolly Jumper are never far from the action. With a key collector's issue already to his name and no signs of slowing down, Lucky Luke is essential reading for anyone who loves their comics with wit, Western atmosphere, and genuine longevity.
