* BrokenBase: Jolly Jumper's gender is a huge topic in UsefulNotes/{{Greece}} for the following reason: for many decades, Jolly Jumper was written as a female mare called Dolly. That was until the 73th issue was released, whose plot had to do with Jolly Jumper falling in love with a beautiful mare named Province. To avoid making her a lesbian, the publishers changed Dolly's gender to male, something that was followed in the next albums. [[TheyChangedItSoItSucks Those who protest this change]], mainly for being familiar with Dolly as a mare, state that her gender doesn't affect the story at all, that the horse's blonde mane and sassy personality fit her more as a female and like the idea of her being the only female companion in [[CelibateHero Lucky Luke]]'s life. Those, on the other hand, who are actually welcomed to that change, say it's for the better, since the next generation will grow up being familiar with Dolly's correct gender.

** This being an AffectionateParody comic that started in the 1950s (when westerns were one of the most popular film genres in Europe) and is set in 19th-century America, there are depictions of black people, Chinese people and Native Americans that can be considered highly offensive (though the Americans are also given their own stereotypes that are treated humorously enough). Some recent editions of the comic need a foreword from the writers that explains that this was how things were in those times, and no insult was intended from a comic book.

** ''[[Recap/LuckyLuke53BrideOfLuckyLuke Bride of Lucky Luke]]'' is full of gender stereotypes ([[DrivesLikeCrazy women being terrible drivers]], afraid of mice, the hairdresser being an obvious CampGay etc.) that can come across as sexist in today's society and one would think that they were sexist even back when the story was published. In all these stereotypes, you can still spot a sense of {{Irony}} however (considering how the Dalton brothers are portrayed as lazy and messy and how Jenny O'Sullivan actually coerces them into cleaning their own hideout and doing other kinds of chores).

** Morris' style, even though it's not as detailed compared to other creators' works, is still appealing to the eye. Not only it's expressive, but it's full of grand cinematic panels and characters whose designs resemble that of famous [[TheWestern western]] actors, making it GeniusBonus for [[TheWestern western]] fans. It's true, however, that it faced a serious decline in the '90s…
** Post-Morris era may be full of problems, but Achdé's style is definitely not one of them. The current artist does a great job mimicking Morris' style, as well as being extremely detailed and expressive.

* MyRealDaddy: It's not like Morris isn't acknowledged for his work (he did the drawings until his passing after all), but many people choose to primarily associate the series with writer Creator/ReneGoscinny. The period when he was the writer is widely referred as the "Golden Age" of the series and the most iconic stories are mostly the ones he wrote. Not only that, but he's responsible for the comic's most known elements, like it being an AffectionateParody of TheWestern genre, Luke riding Jolly Jumper at the end of each story while singing "I'm a poor lonesome cowboy" etc.

* OnlyTheCreatorDoesItRight: The majority of the fans refuse to acknowledge Laurent Gerra as Morris' successor. Technically, Laurent Gerra is the latest of the numerous Goscinny's successors, while Achdé is pretty faithful to Morris' drawing style.
* SeasonalRot: When Morris died and the series was written by comedian Laurent Gerra. It's not unreadably bad, but it's very noticeable that it's no longer made by Morris. The thinly-veiled celebrity and politician parodies don't help.

** As noted above in the BrokenBase section, Dolly (the Greek name of Jolly Jumper) having his gender changed to male, which didn't sit well with the Greek fans who have grown up with Dolly as female. Then again, they're also those who don't like the original decision to make the horse female and rename "her" Dolly.

** Despite being co-produced by Creator/HannaBarbera, the series was a huge failure in the [[UsefulNotes/UnitedStates USA]]. In UsefulNotes/{{Europe}}, however, it was a big hit and it helped skyrocket the comics' popularity.
** It was also popular in UsefulNotes/{{Turkey}} and it's the main reason why Lucky Luke is known in this country.
