Lucky Luke #4 Le Ranch maudit 1990s Turkish Comic Turkey

Red Kit (Lucky Luke –  Le Ranch maudit) – Issue #4 – Milliyet Newspaper Giveaway (1990’s)

Description:

This Red Kit comic was distributed in Turkey during the 1990s as a newspaper giveaway by Milliyet Gazetesi. The series is a Turkish edition of the original Belgian comic series Lucky Luke, created by Morris. Unlike many earlier Turkish editions, this series was printed in full color and in Turkish, aligning more closely with the visual style of the original European albums.

As these comics were given away with a daily newspaper, they were printed on thin, low-grade paper typical of newspaper supplements. While this allowed for wide distribution and accessibility, it also meant that copies were more susceptible to wear, creasing, and paper deterioration. As a result, finding this series today in good condition can be relatively difficult, adding to its interest among collectors.

This first issue is titled Red Kit Perili Çiftlik and adapts the story from the original Lucky Luke album  Le Ranch maudith. Issued as a promotional supplement rather than a standard retail comic, it represents a specific period in Turkish publishing when popular European comic characters were introduced to a broad audience through mass newspaper distribution.
