At the end of the Civil War, many former soldiers turn to a life of crime to survive. Joss Jamon and his gang are among the worst of such men. After sacking the town of Los Palitos, they arrange for Lucky Luke to be arrested for their crimes. The lonesome cowboy, a rope already around his neck, is forced to make a deal with the angry citizens: bring the real bandits back within six months or hang.

Another classic - witih Joss Jamon and a whole bunch of great characters
24 Feb 2011
Format:Paperback|Amazon Verified Purchase
A fairly early Luke Luke adventure from 1958, indeed the earliest one ever translated into English I think. Yet it is a typically witty tale with some brilliant characters, this time it is not only Joss Jamon but all of his wonderful team of crazy cowboys (and an Indian) which provide the entertainment. Funny to see Billy the Kid and Calamity Jane represented outside of their "lucky luke" traditional guises, although Jesse James was pretty much there. This book is bristling with funny ideas which were nurtured and given focus in later books; the newspaper lad providing "live" news of the court event whilst it is still in session, for example. The only oddity is that Jolly Jumper is NOT the classic horse character we came to love in later episodes, its like having a different horse play Jolly. He does the right things, but doesn't have the lovely friendly face that came later.

This review is from my 8 year old son Joss. "I love it, It's the best and I think it's good because 1. it's my name. 2. It's very interesting because many characters from other books are put in it and 3. It's a really good story in my eyes - lots of adventure and funny costumes.
