Lucky Luke is back but Jolly Jumper has retired. The poor lonesome cowboy did the obvious and got himself a steed of steel instead. Fitting to the era it´s of course a brake-less bike with one fixed gear, since free-wheel hubs and gear shifting had not been invented at the time. Considering that Luke had always been a pretty hip guy it makes perfect sense to me. Maybe not every purist´s cup of tea but I (as a bike dude) find it absolutely hilarious! What do you all think? Heresy or logical development of a classic character?
Sure!
And thanks so much for posting this. <3
I’ve added it to our master index of course, and I also hope we can explore more of Mawril’s work.
Personally, the one about the little East Berlin boy finally getting to visit West Berlin (just when the wall was falling) had me in near-tears and applause.
