Maurice and Goscinny: Lucky Luke. Healing the Daltons

"Lucky Luke", along with "Tintin" and "Asterix", is one of the three most popular Franco-Belgian comics in the world. Lucky Luke is a charming and fearless lonely cowboy from the time of the conquest of the American Wild West. He is a real hero, and even a superhero, honest and fair, defender of all the weak and helpless. He always stands on the side of the law, helping local authorities to resist bandits and other villains. Like a true superhero, he has his own superpower: shoot faster than his own shadow!

Each story about Lucky Luke is an exciting and highly educational comedy western, which reflects the real events associated with the development of the Wild West.

This time in a small Texas town comes the luminary of psychiatry from Europe, Professor Otto von Himbergeist. In one of the prisons, he intends to meet with the most incorrigible bandits in order to cure them of their criminal inclinations once and for all by his own method. Lucky Luke is instructed to accompany the professor and provide him with all kinds of assistance. Well, their experimental patients are longtime acquaintances of Luke - the Dalton brothers.

Lucky Luke comics are designed for the widest possible audience. Both children and older readers will be delighted with the adventure plot outline, virtuoso caricature drawing, kind irony and humor literally in every frame. Humor, usually based on puns and sitcom principles, never goes below the belt. And despite the fact that the characters now and then brandish guns and make bang-bang, in these stories there is neither rudeness nor violence. The protagonist shoots, only to deftly knock the weapon out of the hands of opponents with a well-aimed shot. And opponents, of course, always miss. We can safely say that not a single character was harmed in any story. Except for the bruises and bumps that negative characters periodically deservedly receive.
