Lucky Luke #53 Sous le Ciel de l'Ouest 1989 Turkish Comic Turkey

Red Kit (Lucky Luke – Sous le Ciel de l'Ouest) – Issue #53 – Milliyet Newspaper Giveaway (1989)

Description:

This Red Kit comic was published in Turkey by Milliyet in 1989 as part of the newspaper giveaway series distributed alongside the daily paper. The series, released between 1988 and 1989, was printed in Turkish and in full color. Produced on thin paper for mass distribution, these small-format issues are increasingly rare in well-preserved condition, making them collectible.

Measuring 13 × 18 cm, this edition was designed for newspaper distribution rather than conventional bookstore sales. Despite the compact size, the comic preserves the humor, cleverness, and adventurous spirit of the original Franco-Belgian Lucky Luke series, making it accessible to a wide Turkish readership.

Issue #53, titled Red Kit – Tetik Joe, adapts the original Lucky Luke story Sous le Ciel de l'Ouest. In this issue, Red Kit confronts outlaw Joe and navigates the challenges of the Wild West with his usual wit, courage, and resourcefulness, maintaining the charm and adventure of the original series within the practical newspaper format.
