Lucky Luke #55
Der Daily Star
Horace P. Greeley ist Journalist mit Leib und Seele. Zusammen mit seiner Druckerpresse, einer Washington Imperial No. 3, zieht er in den Westen. Die unerschrockenen und kompromisslosen Artikel seiner Zeitung Daily Star finden leider nicht uneingeschränkten Beifall und bringen ihn häufig in missliche Situationen. Doch als Lucky Luke und Jolly Jumper Mitglied der Redaktion werden, beginnt das Blatt sich zu wenden.

About the author
Morris
690 books131 followersThe Belgian author Morris (full name Maurice de Bevere) is best known for his humorous cowboy character, Lucky Luke. Morris started his career in 1945 in Le Moustique, creating various covers and illustrations. By the end of the 1940s, Morris met his colleagues Jijé, Franquin and Will. These four artists would be called "The Gang of 4", because they all worked in Jijé's studio at that time. The first episode of Lucky Luke, 'Arizona 1880', was published in L'Almanach Spirou 1947, and was later continued in Spirou. In his early 'Lucky Luke' comics, Morris was greatly inspired by animated cartoons à la Disney.
In 1949, Jijé took Morris and Franquin to the US, where Morris met Jack Davis and Harvey Kurtzman, whom he helped with their plans for Mad Magazine. He also met René Goscinny in the US. In 1955, Morris returned to Europe and collaborated with René Goscinny on 'Lucky Luke'. Goscinny wrote the scenarios of over 35 stories, which led to the great success of the series.

Horace Greeley was already dead by the time Upton Sinclair was born, so to have them both appear at the same time - the former quite young, at that! - is simply unacceptable. Also, they weren't fifty years ahead with spoken news: they were several centuries behind, with town criers.
That said, this was actually pretty decent. It had a solid arc and good pacing, and plenty of gunslinging action to keep me interested. Good to see they can get a story going even without Goscinny sometimes.

English Cinebook Edition = 2013
Story: ****
The new school of writing is predictably excellent and in the style of original writing because Dargaud was obviously going to give the reigns to the best of the adoring generations that probably grew up with the title as a cherished favorite.
Art: ****
Even without Goscinny, the vintage feel and appeal remains with the enduring Morris brushing wild with his unique and authentic style.

Βρισκόμαστε στο 1984 και κυκλοφορεί η περιπέτεια του Λούκυ Λουκ "Νταίηλυ Σταρ" σε εικονογράφηση Μορίς και κείμενα των Fauche & Leturgie. Πρόκειται για μια ιστορία γεμάτη χιούμορ που στην ουσία σατυρίζει τον Τύπο και την επιρροή του στον κόσμο. Έξυπνη ιστορία.

Voilà un album de Lucky Luke comme je les aime : de l'humour, des running gags qu'on a plaisir à revoir, de l'Histoire de l'Amérique et un Lucky Luke qui se fait voler la vedette par le personnage de Horace P. Greely, journaliste intègre et fondateur du journal Daily Star qui imprime plus vite que l'encre ne sèche.
Oui, Horace est une sorte de Twitter avant l'heure car il donne les infos en temps réel.
Toutes les vérités ne sont pas bonnes à dire et encore moins à écrire, dès lors, lorsque vous imprimez noir sur blanc que les alcools servis par le parton du saloon sont frelatés, ne vous étonnez pas que ce dernier vous expulse de la ville.
De nombreuse fois, Horace et sa Washington Impériale n°3 offerte par ses parents se sont retrouvés dans le cours d'eau à la sortie de la ville. C'est d'ailleurs là qu'il a fait la connaissance de notre cow-boy solitaire préféré et de son fidèle destrier.
Horace est un personnage drôle, attachant, émouvant dans sa quête de publier la vérité, sans langue de bois, comme tout journaliste devrait être.
Hélas, vous savez comme moi qu'on aime museler la presse en la corrompant (tout Homme a son prix) ou en menaçant les gens qui veulent creuser dans la fange pour extirper la vérité.
Ça ne va pas faire plaisir à certains dans la ville de Dead End City où le tenancier du saloon n'a pas apprécié l'article sur son whisky frelaté et l'épicier sur ses marges exagérées.
Beaucoup d'humour dans cet album, de l'humour fin, en plus, avec Lucky Luke et Horace cherchant par tout les moyens à imprimer le journal, sur tous les supports possibles et imaginables – ce qui donnera des clins d'oeil des plus amusants sur notre époque – et l'imprimant même avec du café lorsque l'encre n'arrivera pas.
« Vous manquez de café ? Faites infuser votre Daily Star ! »
Inventant des slogans publicitaires, se faisant payer en nature, inventant le premier journal parlé, gravant son nom sur les fers de son cheval, Horace n'est jamais à court d'idées pour diffuser son journal, ne se sentant plus lorsque les ventes passent de 30 à 35 exemplaires.
J'avais déjà pris un plaisir fou à lire cet album post-Goscinny (R.I.P.) qui contenait tout ce que j'apprécie dans les aventures de Lucky Luke et j'ai pris autant de plaisir à le relire et m'esclaffer devant leurs bons mots.
Rien à redire, cet album est une belle réussite et il peut trôner avec mes Lucky Luke préférés !

This Lucky Luke volume is a story about the printing press in the wild west and what challenges it faced as a certain Horace Greely wants to succeed in Dead End City as an owner of a newspaper, the Daily Star. Telling the truth does not work for many people who live off leeching others, so he faces certain accidents and then finally competition. Lucky Luke is helping him to stay on track, there are some humorous elements, but I'm still to find one Lucky Luke volume that is an absolute hit. Lukewarm, not bad certainly, but not great either.

"Vaya al Oeste, joven" es la frase resume la gran aventura norteamericana. Se le atribuye a Horace P. Greeley y precisamente un joven Horace sigue su propio consejo protegido por Lucky Luke. Otra de las joyas que produjo el tándem Morris y Goscinny. Humor socarrón, aventura y diversión. IMPRESCINDIBLE

Bastante divertido! Até muito recentemente desconhecia as histórias em BD de Lucky Luke, por isso tem sido uma agradável descoberta, nomeadamente os livros desta dupla de argumentistas (Fauche e Léturgie) a par dos desenhos característicos de Morris.

Lucky Luke is the sexiest cowboy, ever! I was fangirling over him for so many years, and well until forever. Hahaha

Bár LL nem a kedvenc képregényhősöm, szívesen olvasom, ha nincs más.
A sztori jópofa volt, inkább történelmileg érdekes, mint a csihipuhi miatt.

This is one of the good non-Goscinny stories in the typical Lucky Luke style of dealing with a specific aspect of the Wild West.

Υπάρχουν κάποιες ιστορικές ανακρίβειες, αλλά κόμικ είναι ούτως ή άλλως. Αρκετά διασκεδαστικό, από τα καλά δείγματα της μετά Goscinny εποχής.

Příhody s novinářem na Divokém západě se mi líbily. Nejlepší byla asi jeho dokonalá pohotovost a opravdu rychlé sepisování článků, to se dneska už nevidí :D

Onnistunut ryhtiliike tehty tämän ja edellisen Lucky Luken välissä. Tässä oli nokkeluuksia ja hyviä paikkoja siellä täällä.

No, not the somewhat grotty British tabloid, but an Old West newspaper with a proprietor inspired by a real editor who went on to run America’s most influential newspaper.
The Horace P Greeley of this book, we’re reliably reassured, is not intended be the same man, but with the resilience, determination and innovation he shows you wouldn’t mind if he was. With his reliable Washington Imperial No 3 printing press Horace sets off out into the West to tell the truth wherever he rolls up, but that often lands him in deep trouble, so when he meets Lucky Luke and Jolly Jumper there’s the opportunity to put down firmer roots in a town and really make a go of the paper. The problem is that despite Luke’s help, and Jolly Jumper’s exceptional assistance on most of the related newspaper production chores, some members of the town don’t appreciate the spotlight that the paper throws on them and try again and again to shut it down.
There’s a nice recurring gag where the ideas man of the hapless group has to run through a little pantomime to lay out his plan, and the alternative’s that are used when the newspaper and then ink run out are worth a smirk too.
Fauche and Léturgie are on writing duties here following the untimely death a few years earlier of Goscinny, and they make a good stab at retaining the humour and storytelling style of what’s gone before, no doubt assisted by the fact that Morris is still drawing his creation and understands what makes Lucky Luke tick.
What I particularly enjoy about this series is how they can take a small detail of living in the West and expand upon it, shaping an interesting and amusing tale in the process. One of the things I’ve always loved about cartoons and comics is their ability to introduce the unusual and the overlooked, so you end up a little more informed on a subject which can sometimes be all it takes to launch a wider interest. And there’s certainly lots to discover about the early efforts of a newspaperman here - in-between the more outlandish fun - and the fact you get Lucky Luke as well is indeed a bonus.

Kisah kali ini mengenai seluk-beluk koran. Mulai dari mencari berita, penerbitan, penjualan koran hingga mengatasi upaya sabotase dari pihak yang ingin menghalangi kebebasan pers.
Horace P Greeley sejak kecil sudah menyukai dunia surat kabar. Bermodal mesin cetan Woshington Imperial Versi ketiga, ia pergi ke barat dan memulai karier sebagai wartawan. Korannya Daily Star kadang mendapat kecaman dari beberapa orang yang kurang suka dengan berita yang dimuatnya. Pembaca yang marah karena ketajaman isi berita biasanya melakukan segala hal guna membungkam kebebasan pers.
