Lucky Luke is completly unknown in America
Blake James
Aaron Ramirez
He just wasn't lucky to be shown much
Noah Anderson
Lukewarm reception.
Austin Peterson
Luck of the draw
Jaxon Flores
Tintin and maybe the smurfs are pretty much the only Franco-Belgian comics Americans know, outside of a few enthusiasts.
No Spirou & Fantasio, no Gaston, Cubitus, Iznogud, Inspector Canard... it's a real shame.
Ayden Phillips
looks familiar
William Morgan
Belgians never had cowboys! Showing American Cowboys and not being an American is Cultural Appropriation! Stop stealing our culture!
Joshua Thompson
fucking hell
Connor Nelson
Maybe because there was no notable animated series? The only reason 'Muricans know the Smurfs is because of the cartoon.
Asher Parker
It did get some decent animated series.
Jeremiah Robinson
The one from the 80s was co-produced with damn Hanna Barbera too.
en.wikipedia.org
Julian Miller
They put 3 episodes together to make a movie.
Parker Allen
Maybe it's because us Americans created our own superior cowboy

Aaron Johnson
He's not known much in Italy either, the general public doesn't know about him for sure.
Julian Flores
>midriff covered up
Lucas Roberts
Fine is this better? Authentic AMERICAN cowboys, just like Grandma used to wear!
Brody Perry
Marvel and DC
Angel Scott
erm
The balled of the Daltons is a Idéfix studio animated movie (the only one made by them along with the 12 tasks of Asterix), directed by Goscinny & Morris themselves.
It's even in the wiki you linked that the movie you're referencing is The Daltons on the loose.
The ballad is vastly superior tho, so you're okay, citizen.
Xavier Baker
Is Asterix even known in Burgerland?
Isaiah Sanchez
Hol up, these posts will NOT go insufficiently (You).
Chase Taylor
I'd argue that Asterix is sort of known
Nolan Stewart
>good eurocomic is completely unknown in America
;_;
Ayden Martinez
It's technically the most well known comic in the world.
Matthew Watson
how ? most translations ?
Josiah Parker
You're right, I forgot Asterix because pretty much everyone knows him.
I even remember seeing questions about the Gaul villagers in a test of general knowledge.
Bentley Taylor
>you will never read glorious European comics in burgerland
Angel Thompson
The only reason I know of him is I had a lucky luke video game for the ps1 way back when
Adam Brooks
It used to be pretty commonly used in French classes.
Blake Rodriguez
...
Oliver Hernandez
Are native americans butthurt about accurate depiction of them?
William Lopez
If you want some autism please enjoy
Gabriel Davis
Wow, she must really like Joe Dalton.
Jose Long
Not this again user, I did not need to be reminded of it
Ethan Turner
>cowboy pulp
>accurate

Brandon Hall
Blueberry > Lucky Luke
Logan Morgan
>that art
Giraud = god
Logan Edwards
Tintin and Asterix are a permanent staple of my little North East town's library.
No idea if anyone actually reads them.
Noah Young
Are you telling me that there are Paris tier cannons in a western setting?
What is this comic about?
Joseph Walker
Anglos never had cowboys either. They had to literally invade Mexican territory to get their first batch.
Nolan Cruz
I suppose Americans may also be interested in les Tuniques Bleues if they knew about it.
Luke Walker
The new series was a work of art
youtube.com
Arguably it was better than the comics it was based on (even the Goscinny ones were never as good as Asterix).
Caleb Kelly
Damn I'd forgotten about that.
Easton Ross
It even had an English dub.
And a few little details, like the colouring reflecting the comic (a lot of solid reds and blues for backgrounds) or that Luke's shadow was a fraction of a second slower than him every time Luke shot.
They also made the Daltons dumber in the cartoon. In the comics they were excellent shots and were literate. In the cartoon Joe couldn't hit a target point blank and their illiteracy was used for a few jokes.
Also the Polish dub was super cheesy with the voices often repeating which made it even more ridiculous and thus funny.
I found it interesting that you could put the show pretty well within a real time frame: the plot did not move beyond June 1876, as General Custer was around as a recurring character, but the battle of Little Bighorn was referenced at least twice (in the same dark humour way Brutus is always shown playing with a knife around Julius Ceasar in Asterix).
Dylan Carter
I'd only ever seen the german one, just remembered that damn intro music.
But yeah it looks pretty neat.
