Lucky Luke

Lucky Luke is the legendary Belgian comic-book cowboy created by Morris — a sharpshooting lone rider of the American West who "shoots faster than his shadow," traveling the frontier with his faithful horse Jolly Jumper to bring outlaws to justice.

A Silver Age gem with staying power, this Lucky Luke has been gracing Dutch comics pages since 1962 — a remarkable 64-year run that speaks to enduring fan devotion. Debuting in Robbedoes #1273 under the hands of the legendary Franquin and Jidéhem, this version of the laconic cowboy found a home in beloved Dutch weeklies like Eppo Stripblad, Eppo, and Pep, keeping lively company with the likes of Jolly Jumper, Sjors, Sjimmie, Storm, and Franka along the way. Whether you're a seasoned collector of European comics or just discovering the rich world of Dutch strip culture, 47 catalog appearances across six-plus decades make this a thread well worth following.
