The Wild West revealed.,
By Simon Adams (Australia) - See all my reviews
This review is from: The Tenderfoot (Lucky Luke) (Paperback)
The Tenderfoot, indeed the whole Lucky Luke series, does for the Wild West, what Asterix did for the Roman Empire. Like Asterix, the stories are related in comic book form.The story is set around the adventures of a fast shootin', laid back cowboy named Lucky Luke, and his faithful horse, Jolly Jumper. This particular story revolves around a well dressed, educated Briton (or 'Tenderfoot') coming out to the Wild West. Like the rest of the Lucky Luke series, Rene Goscinny's great sense of humour shines through in the dialogue and set-ups. In particular, watch for the gun duel involving the Briton. The artwork is great, and really captures the time-period. Both in the story and the illustration, it is clear that research of the time period has been undertaken, and often, at the end of the book there will be information on historical references, which can in itself make for one of the most enjoyable history lessons children of all ages could hope to have. |
