Lucky Luke

In the early 1990s, German publisher Bastei Verlag took a fresh swing at the classic Western humor series Lucky Luke with a 15-issue run. Writer Peter Mennigen and the artistic team at Studio Ortega / Interpubli brought a distinctly European sensibility to the cowboy's adventures, blending slapstick and frontier action. This short-lived but energetic series stands as a notable chapter in the character's long publishing history, offering a compact, self-contained era of stories for fans of the lonesome cowboy.
