Books by Rene Goscinny

Portrait of Rene Goscinny

René Goscinny was a master of comic storytelling, renowned for co-creating the beloved *Asterix* series alongside illustrator Albert Uderzo. His sharp wit, deft characterisation and playful use of language brought to life the indomitable Gauls who resist Roman rule with humour and heart. Goscinny's writing combined clever wordplay with universal themes of friendship and resilience, making his stories timeless favourites across generations.

Beyond *Asterix*, Goscinny co-created *Lucky Luke* and penned the charming *Le Petit Nicolas* tales, further cementing his place as one of Europe's most influential comic writers. His legacy endures through editions that continue to delight readers of all ages, reminding us that laughter and imagination are the most powerful tools in any storyteller's armoury.

    Book SynopsisAfter the first adventures, Morris turned towards the tradition of Westerns to flesh out his hero's world. In Under a Western Sky, Lucky Luke versus Pat Poker, and Outlaws there is a lot of Hollywood and John Ford, and while Luke hasn t quite settled into his current look, he's certainly closer to the cowboy we know and love. Outlaws also marks the first appearance of the historical Daltons, who will later return as their decidedly stupider cousins. Throw in 48 pages of extra material on Morris's experience in the United States, and this is a book you won t want to miss.
