Yes, the Lucky Luke books were great too :-) I think Uderzo drew those too but correct me if I'm wrong. Ah... I wish I had taken your initiative and purchased Patatrac a few years back when it was cheaper. My mother still has an original copy but the binding is falling apart. Have checked it out with a few online second hand book dealers but the prices are fairly steep for one in good condition. I too hope they release some of Loup's work into print as books. Cheers, Paul. Hi Marcus,

I lived an identical childhood (in Melbourne). I must've borrowed this book from the school library a dozen times during school. (my father used to have a list of Tintin, Asterix and Lucky Luke books I had to borrow for him to read as well). I bought a couple of copies of this book afew years ago while they were reasonably cheap. They will be future presents for my kids. Loup has done some great pieces since, that appear to only be available in jigsaws. Its a shame (as far as I know) that there isn't any more recent books, or even posters. Wow. Great memories.
