A Lucky Luke Adventure #80

The eightieth Lucky Luke adventure brings a mystery-flavored Western romp with "The Alibi," written by Claude Guylouis and drawn by the series' own Morris. The cover sets a wonderfully comic tone: four broadly grinning outlaws march single-file across a log bridge at dusk, laden with loot — a slab of meat, a bulging U.S. Mail sack, a strongbox, and a lantern swinging in the last man's hand — looking impossibly pleased with themselves. Lucky Luke himself watches from the corner, his cool expression a quiet reminder that no alibi, however clever, is likely to hold up for long.
