Description
Even a hero from the Far West needs a vacation from time to time, and looking after a few Swiss cows seems like the perfect opportunity for Lucky Luke. These milk cows happen to produce the precious substance necessary for the production of authentic Swiss chocolate! The West has just discovered cocoa, and chocolate should soon be a commodity in all mouths. And yet... between vicious autograph hounds, the chief of the Chicoree tribe, and two cowboys whose frustrated love leads to even more frustrating brawling, will Lucky Luke end up yearning for a reunion with the Daltons?

Library's review
Another entry in the "other artists do their take on Lucky Luke" series, which has produced rather pleasing results so far, and does so yet again here. A charming little tale of Lucky Luke's friendship with a gay cowboy, where I especially enjoy the interruptions in the frame story. The depiction

of the two Native Americans leave a lot to be desired, though, even by Lucky Luke standards. Show Less

I'm not sure the world actually needed a Lucky Luke/Brokeback Mountain mashup, but here we have it. The story's pretty good, but I'm not fond of the art and the depiction of Native Americans comes off as a little, um, dated.
