Synopsis "A Lucky Luke Adventure, Tome 79: Steaming up the Mississippi: Volume 79 "

Passing through New Orleans, Lucky Luke stumbles upon a heated argument between two steamboat captains. The argument soon turns into a wager: whichever boat reaches Minneapolis first after steaming up the Mississippi will win the exclusive rights to the route. Captain Barstow quickly invites Luke to travel on his Daisy Belle, fearing that his opponent will cheat. And while he's not wrong, the biggest danger to both boats remains Old Man River himself ...

Maurice de Bévère, known as Morris (1923-2001), was a Belgian cartoonist famous for creating the iconic cowboy Lucky Luke in 1946. The series, set in the Wild West, combines humor and adventure, and has been translated into almost 25 languages.

Morris wrote the first Lucky Luke stories alone, but the series reached its greatest splendor when he teamed up with French scriptwriter René Goscinny. Together, they created memorable adventures that established Lucky Luke as a benchmark of European comics. The series has been adapted into TV series and movies, both live-action and animated, maintaining its relevance over the years.
