The solitary cowboy Lucky Luke will know a seventh designer in the person of Blutch, announced Tuesday August 22, 2023 the Dargaud editions.
According to the publication program of the house which publishes the adventures of “the man who shoots faster than his shadow”, the album “Les Indomptés” (48 pages, 13 € in France) will be released on December 1st.
Blutch (Christian Hincker at civil status) is one of the big names in comics. Grand Prix of the Angoulême Festival in 2009, his main works are “Modern Speed”, “C’été le bonheur” or “La Volupté”.
Lucky Luke was born in 1946 under the pencil of the Belgian Morris.
New side of the cowboy
Since the death of its creator in 2001, the character has been taken over with faithful graphics by the designer Achdé, who has signed 11 albums. Then, from 2016, it was adapted by four other authors, Matthieu Bonhomme (two albums), Guillaume Bouzard, Ralph König and Mawil (one album each).
“Les Indomptés” gives the cowboy an unnatural role: that of nanny, when he comes across two children without their parents, including a trigger-happy little girl.
Blutch had already drawn Lucky Luke on a sheet of “Variations”, an album from 2017 where he reinterpreted several comic book classics such as Asterix, Blake and Mortimer or Blueberry.
Autumn, in comics, will see this Lucky Luke compete with Asterix (“The White Iris”, October 26), Gaston Lagaffe (“The Return of Lagaffe”, November 22) and Corto Maltese (“The Queen of Babylon,” October 18).
