The Tenderfoot by René Goscinny
A genteel English aristocrat inherits a ranch out West and must learn to survive a world of cattle, brawls and a scheming rival who wants his land.
Lucky Luke is the Western comic series created by the Belgian artist Morris in 1946. It follows a lone cowboy who shoots faster than his shadow, his clever horse Jolly Jumper, and the witless prison dog Rantanplan. From 1955 the French writer René Goscinny scripted the series and turned it into a sharp and funny parody of the American West, with recurring foes such as the four Dalton brothers. After Goscinny died in 1977 and Morris in 2001, later writers and the artist Achdé carried the series on, and it now runs to more than eighty albums.
