Maurice de Bevere, the creative mind behind Lucky Luke, is better known to his millions of readers worldwide by his pen name Morris. Born on December 1, 1923, in Courtrai, Belgium, and passing away on July 16, 2001, in Brussels, he is regarded as one of the most outstanding comic authors of the 20th century. René Goscinny was born on August 14, 1926, in Paris. In 1949, he met Morris in New York. He moved to Belgium and took on the writing for Lucky Luke, his first major success. In 1959, he co-founded the Pilote magazine, where he published Asterix alongside Albert Uderzo. Goscinny died of a heart attack in Paris in 1977.
