Lucky Luke: Steaming Up the Mississippi – A Race Against the River

Adventure meets the mighty Mississippi in Lucky Luke: Steaming Up the Mississippi, a thrilling tale of courage, competition, and quick wit from the legendary comic series published by Cinebook.

While passing through New Orleans, Lucky Luke finds himself caught in a heated rivalry between two proud steamboat captains. What begins as a simple dispute soon becomes a daring wager: the first to reach Minneapolis will earn the exclusive rights to the Mississippi River route. Captain Barstow, determined to win fair and square, invites the ever-dependable Lucky Luke aboard his boat, The Daisy Belle, to help keep things honest.

But with cunning opponents, unpredictable river twists, and the wild spirit of Old Man River himself, the journey proves to be far from smooth sailing.

Filled with humor, classic Western charm, and cinematic storytelling, this Lucky Luke adventure captures the essence of high-stakes heroism on the open water—where even the world’s fastest cowboy can’t outpace the river’s will.
