Spirou #1511

In "La Diligence [partie 8]", Lucky Luke takes on the high-stakes job of guarding a gold shipment from Denver to San Francisco, a mission meant to prove the Wells Fargo diligences are still safe despite repeated attacks. With a crew of familiar faces—including Jolly Jumper, M. Oakleaf, and the ever-troublesome Hank Bully—along for the ride, the journey promises dust, danger, and plenty of western flair.

In 1757, Lieutenant Christian Vanel commands the corvette Albatroz on a rescue mission in the East Indies. When the merchant ship Estrela do Sul vanishes without a trace, Vanel and his crew land on an island ruled by ancient rituals and deadly secrets. With his commander dead, his men disappearing, and a corrupt governor hiding a conspiracy with the Kanamas tribe, Vanel must unravel the truth with the help of a young indigenous woman—before the temple of crocodiles claims him.
