I wonder if anybody on all of "/co/ - Comcs & Cartoons" even know what Lucky Luke is

>>94666315
I do.
Generally I like Lucky Luke, though with some downs with Luke being an insufferable Mary Sue.

>>94666376
He's a Mary Sue done right (which arguably, is not a Mary Sue): he's the setting, and the rest of the cast are the actual characters.

>>94666396
More like "he's the mcguffin"
Luke drives and sometimes resolves the plot, but he barely contributes to it.

>>94666315

I'm aware of it but haven't read any. Can someone explain what's going on in that OP pic? What's the deal with those four identical-but-progressively-shorter dudes on the right?

Those are the Dalton Brothers, one of the main protagonists in the series. They look the same, dress the same, you get the gist, and they have this cliche thing where the shortest on is a short-tempered "leader", and the tallest is an air-headed goof.

Daltons (cousins of the real life Daltons); Joe (shortest and the leader), Jack, William and Averell (tallest and dumbest) iirc

Their chief value is in their potential for pretty constant visual gags

Some weird fucking genetics going on in that family. To produce four children with no variation whatsoever aside from height, the genepool from which their parents draw must be really fucking shallow.

>>94666725
I'm convinced that they are from some humanoid sub-species that has no sexual dimorphism.

>>94666315
Of course I do. He was created in the greatest country on Earth, after all.

Damn straight.

I remember that series. They also had a stupid dog.

Literally present on ops pic.

Lucky Luke is more like a force of nature than a character.

Good manners and the law bind him, though and interestingly are often used against him.

I always liked how Sarah Bernhard hating his cigarette smoke and banning him from her wagon/room absolutely pissed him off. (this is classic issues before he went and sucked on a straw instead).

Also often his horse, Jolly Jumper, does all the work behind the scenes to resolve a conflict.

We storytimed the anniversary issue in here with the slightly more realistic and gritty reboot Lucky Luke that looked a bit Asian.
Pretty good western comic to be honest, just not very funny.
I guess good for the kids that don't even know what a western is so they have a hard time understanding the old comics.

every single member of Dalton family looks the same

>>94667283
On that note:
I hate this cliche in shows and cartons where ancestors of main characters look like/are played by the exact same actors as the main characters.
I can give it a pass if it's just main characters telling stories about them, or reminiscing, or healing a tale and self-inserting, but if it's an actual episode taking place in the past or a narrative flashback - it pisses me off.

Lucky Luke is not Mary Sue

He just have good luck and incredible aiming & speed skills

>Celibate Hero: While this was frequent at the times in franco-belgian comics, Lucky Luke deserves a special mention in that he is explicitly stated to dislike the very concept of being in a relationship. In one book, when asked to escort a group of women to a new town, he freaks out at the mere sight of the women and almost refuses to provide his help until being convinced nothing will happen.

The first issue always looked plenty gritty to me.

>>94667343
Please tell me this was drawn by a girl and it's her self-insert

>>94666315
I know of it because French/Tunisian/Moroccan families here in the City show it to their kids to help them learn French.

Never seen it in English.

Why would they do this. Why this artstyle?

>>94667530
Looks like it was drawn by a cut-rate political cartoonist.

At least it's not in CalArts or worse, tumblr style.

shoot me if you wish, but I think I'd rather have cal arts over this.
At least cal arts would be able to do the "all daltons look the same" joke right, it specializes in copy-paste character designs.

It's a pretty good western comic.

This is an ok album, it's not a "new fresh reboot", it's just a one shot story that tries a different take on the franchise for one story.

I guess he could shoot a bullet that the Flash would run into and cause death by lead poisoning once he slows down.
