About the author
Greg
546 books21 followersPseudonym of Michel Regnier, who also published as Michel Denys and Louis Albert. He legally changed his name to Michel Greg in 1975.
The series for which Greg is best known, Achille Talon, began in 1963 in Pilote magazine, also the source of comics such as Asterix. Regnier became editor-in-chief of Tintin magazine in 1966 and remained so until 1974. He introduced a more adult genre, with less perfect heroes and more violence. He created some of his most famous series like Bruno Brazil and Bernard Prince in this period, and introduced artists like Hermann to the magazine. In 1975 he became literary director for the French publisher Dargaud and launched Achille Talon magazine.
As "Greg", Regnier was one of the most prolific creators of Franco-Belgian comics, working in all genres and collaborating with many other European artists and scriptwriters. Well known for working with artist Hermann, Greg also worked with André Franquin, Eddy Paape (Luc Orient), Dany, Albert Uderzo and René Goscinny, and many others. It is estimated that he contributed as a writer and an artist to some 250 comic albums.
Hergé asked him to remake two of The Adventures of Tintin — The Seven Crystal Balls and Prisoners of the Sun — into a script for one long animated movie, Tintin and the Temple of the Sun. He also wrote the script for Tintin and the Lake of Sharks.

Another bittersweet ending, bitter for the tragedy of the five sheriffs and Wallace, whom I'd come to like, and sweet because Red reunites with his boss and friends back in the ranch.

The Magnificent Seven, but then with six.
The Ruhmann gang laid siege on the town of Summerfield.
Knowing Comanche is there, Red Dust joins a group of ex-sheriffs to go to the aid of Summerfield.
Again an exiting story with good art work.

Tämä osa venytti jonkin verran uskottavuusmittaria, ja olisihan Redin voinut jollain helpommallakin keinoin saada takaisin Comanche-tarinan Comancheen luo. Hyvin tummasävyinen tarina, vaatii hyvää valaistusta lukiessa.

A wild bunch of former sheriffs - including Dust - come together to liberate a town besieged by an army of outlaws.
Simple, effective, with some memorable lines. The colouring is superb, enhancing Hermann's drawings and compositions.

Comanche on jäänyt Blueberryn varjoon vaikka on paljon parempi.
Kuten tämäkin.

Onder dwang, en wegens andere verdoezelde redenen, verkozen tot mijn lievelingsstrip.

dans la série : "on échappe pas à son destin", Red Dust se pose là !
Alors qu'il avait raccroché les colts, une fois de plus il doit sortir de sa réserve pour voler au secours d'une ville assiégée où Comanche est réfugiée...
Un ouvrage violent, mais aussi grandiose et plein de mélancolie. On reste dans la mouvance générale de la série autour d'un monde sauvage qui s'efface peu à peu face au progrès.
