Buddy Longway is a western comic book written by the Swiss comic book writer Derib. It is published under the Le Lombard publishing house. The first issue came out in 1972, and 16 issues were published until 1987 until Derib restarted the series in 2002, continuing with four further issues until 2006, until he announced that the 20th issue, La Source, would be the last.
Both the story arcs and the drawings are praised for the realistic portrayal of the simplistic, rough life as a trapper.
The series is a family saga which centers around the eponymous character Buddy Longway, a trapper who lives in the wilderness. He lives married to a Sioux Native Americanwoman called Chinook. In the course of the series, they have two children, Jeremy and Kathleen.
Main topics of the series, which is set in the 19th century, are living in the wilderness, interracial relationships, Native American culture, coming of age (Jeremy and Kathleen) and age (Buddy Longway).
