Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles
available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. Rantanplan is a
fictional hound dog created by Belgian comics artist Morris and French
writer René Goscinny. Originally a supporting character in the Lucky
Luke series, Rantanplan later starred in an eponymous series. Rantanplan
is a spoof of Rin Tin Tin, as idiotic as Rin Tin Tin is clever. English
versions of the books have renamed him "Rin Tin Can" and "Bushwack" in
the 1983 Hanna-Barbera Animated Lucky Luke television series. The
character first appeared in the earliest panels of the story Sur la
piste des Dalton, published on February 4, 1960 in the comics magazine
Spirou, and latter as an album in 1962.
