Catalogue information
On the occasion of the anniversary of his world-famous Lucky Luke series, which is celebrating its 70th birthday this year, the 64th edition of REDDITION is devoting an entire dossier to the life and work of the Belgian illustrator Maurice de Bévère alias Morris. In an extra extensive edition, the biography of the successful author and the genesis of his world success Lucky Luke are documented from different perspectives and with lots of rare and in part never shown in Germany images. The Morris dossier refers to the German-language publications of his comics as well as to the collaboration with René Goscinny and his work for the Dupuis magazine Le Moustique and the animation studio Belvision. In detailed portraits, Morris' colleagues and epigones Achdé, Henk Albers, Matthieu Bonhomme and Guillaume Bouzard are introduced and show how the "Lonesome Cowboy" still inspires many readers today. A complete bibliography of all Morris comics rounds off the dossier.
