Analysis and reception
The absurdity of the intelligent talking horse Jolly Jumper juxtaposed against the appearances of many real historical figures has been described as contributing to the humor and charm of the comic series.[2][4][5]
Nándor Bokor described Jolly Jumper as the "true soulmate" of the main character Lucky Luke.[4]
