“BD” refers to Franco-Belgian comics, but let's open things up to include ALL Euro comics and GN's. Euro-style work from around the world is also welcome!

* BD = "Bandes dessinées"
* BDT = Bedetheque
* GN = graphic novel
* LBK = Lambiek
* LC = "Ligne claire"

The four criminal brothers up to their usual shenanigans. As explained in the stories, they're actually cousins of the notorious Dalton Gang, motivated to avenge their cousins' deaths & imprisonment at the hands of Lucky Luke. This panel is from Lucky Luke - Daltons in the Blizzard.

It's weird that it's tome 22 in France but only tome 15 in the English edition.

When Cinebook started publishing LL, they began right off with Morris - Goscinny stories. In reality, Morris had created the character on his own (in 1946) and it wasn't until a decade later that Goscinny came on as writer. But just as with Asterix, I'd argue that the Goscinny-written stories are the best of the series.

So it makes business and pragmatic sense to me why they wanted to start with those.
