Popol Out West
''Popol Out West'' () is a comic by the Belgian cartoonist Hergé, better known as the creator of ''The Adventures of Tintin'' series. Commissioned by the conservative Belgian newspaper フランス語:''Le Vingtième Siècle'' ("''The Twentieth Century''") for its children's supplement フランス語:''Le Petit Vingtième'', it was serialised weekly from February to August 1934. The story tells of two anthropomorphic bears, Popol and Virginia, who travel into the Wild West to sell hats, facing opposition from a tribe of hostile Native American rabbits and a criminal bulldog named Bully Bull.
The story contains a number of elements that Hergé had already utilized in earlier comics ''The Adventures of Tim the Squirrel out West'' (1931) and ''The Adventures of Tom and Millie'' (1933). He prevented its republication during the German occupation of Belgium, and it was colourised and republished in 1948 in ''Tintin'' magazine. Casterman first published it in a collected album in 1952.
==Synopsis==
As hats go out of fashion, the anthropomorphic bear Popol the Hatter heads into the American West with his wife Virginia and blue donkey, Bluebell. Setting up camp in the land of the Bunnokee, a tribe of anthropomorphic rabbit Native Americans, he does good business there. This infuriates the Bunnokee medicine man, whose feather headdress business has declined as a result. He and the Chief of the Bunnokees conspire to eradicate the economic threat, launching war against Popol. Using technology that is more advanced than the Bunnokee's bow and arrows, Popol defeats the rabbits' initial attacks, but they retaliate by abducting Virginia and threatening to torture her. Popol then rescues her, and together they escape, coming upon a river in which they discover gold.
They are captured by the gangster Bully Bull the anthropomorphised bulldog, and although they escape once, he recaptures them, before Bluebell kicks him so hard that he flies into the air and lands in Santa Barbara, where he is found and imprisoned by a sheriff. While Popol, Virginia, and Bluebell manage to make their way across a deep ravine, Bully Bull escapes from jail, and attacks Popol on a steep face. All of them fall down the cliff, but are rescued by firemen with a trampoline, and Bully Bull is once more apprehended.
