When a huge bounty is posted on a Cheyenne man for the apparent theft of a pedigree horse, the bounty hunter Elliot Belt will stop at nothing to pocket it - not even at triggering a new Indian war if he has to. Lucky Luke must juggle keeping him in check, appeasing the irate Cheyenne and trying to save the suspected thief from Old West-style summary justice. A cheerful homage to the golden age of Hollywood westerns.
Born and raised in Belgium, Morris moved to the United States in 1946 for six years. There, he worked for MAD magazine and met Rene Goscinny, with whom he collaborated from 1955 until Goscinny's death in 1977. Goscinny also created the IznogoudA" series with illustrator Tabary, published in English by Cinebook, and the hugely successful AsterixA" series with illustrator Uderzo.
