JERRY SPRING
Yucca Ranch (T.2),
Dupuis 1955
Original plate no. 33, prepublished
in Le Journal de Spirou no. 862 of
October 21, 1954. Indian ink
and white gouache on paper
34.5 × 50.5 cm (13.58 × 19.88 in.)
A beautiful night scene in which Jijé demonstrates his science of black and white. In those days, scenarios were dense, and Maurice Rosy managed to interweave several plots into one story. The story follows the tribulations of the Fenton family on their way to California, which involves crossing several Indian territories. Father Fenton is particularly suspicious of Jerry Spring's partner, Pancho, because he is a mixed-blood Indian and Mexican. In this panel, we even see Pancho betray his friend by giving him an uppercut! This reversal is perfectly illustrated in this scene.
