Lucky Luke Vol.33

Factual farcical fun
This is a post-Goscinny book, one of the earliest, penned (with Morris) in 1981 by Bob de Groot who has written three Lucky Luke books in all.There are lots of familiar elements to this story which Lucky Luke readers will recognise. Firstly we have yet another reason to tour around the country falling over amusing characters and towns, and the proverbial bar scene. Next we have an element of historical interest in that the two main guest characters existed in true life, Arthur and Adolph Caille were indeed investors of slot machines, amongst other things. Did they really have their prototype slot machine carried by a cowboy riding a horse along a high wire between two canyons? Errm, probably not, but what a great scene that is, as depicted on the cover. Finally you get the usual "baddie" who is out to screw up Luke's plans even though he doesn't appear until you are well over half way through the book. This baddie and his ridiculously stupid accomplice have to be one of Luke's most useless foes, but funny.So altogether a good read, but somehow the story doesn't flow very well. It's a good start but then after a few good interludes it sort of peters out - clearly a good idea but something else was needed for it to be a classic episode for me.
