"Lucky Luke," along with "Tintin" and "Asterix," is one of the three most popular Franco-Belgian comics in the world. The series has sold over 300 million copies worldwide. "Lucky Luke" has already been translated into more than 25 languages, and it's finally available in Russian! Lucky Luke is a charming and fearless lone cowboy during the early days of the American Wild West. He's a true hero, even a superhero, honest and fair, a protector of the weak and helpless. He always stands on the side of the law, helping local authorities fight bandits and other villains. Like a true superhero, he has his own superpower: he can shoot faster than his own shadow! Each Lucky Luke story is a gripping and highly educational comedy western, reflecting real events associated with the development of the Wild West. In the seventh book, Lucky Luke helps Western Union lay the first transcontinental telegraph line. Along the way, the heroes encounter not only natural dangers but also hostile Native Americans. And the detective storyline keeps readers on the edge of their seats until the very end: a traitor has clearly appeared among the telegraph construction crew. Who is this villain? The Lucky Luke comics are designed for a wide audience. Both children and older readers will be delighted by the adventurous plot, masterful cartooning, and the good-natured irony and humor in literally every frame. The humor, typically based on wordplay and sitcom principles, never strays below the belt. And despite the characters constantly waving pistols and banging, these stories are free of coarseness and violence. The protagonist shoots only to deftly knock the guns out of his opponents' hands with a well-aimed shot. And the enemies, naturally, always miss. It's safe to say that not a single character was harmed in any of the stories. Except for the occasional bruises and bumps that the villains deservedly receive. Particularly noteworthy is the easy-to-read large font, thanks to which the Lucky Luke comics are suitable for beginning readers and will become their first step towards reading the novels of Fenimore Cooper and Mayne Reid. The creators of Lucky Luke are two brilliant humorists, the Belgian artist Maurice de Bever, who worked under the pseudonym Morris, and the Frenchman René Goscinny, well known to Russian readers for his series of stories "Little Nicolas" and for the Asterix comics, where he also worked as a screenwriter.
