Lester Cockney

Irish Melody, 1994

Lester Cockney is a series of graphic albums by Belgian writer-artist Franz Drappier, starring Lester Mahoney, a young Irishman, known as "Lester Cockney" because of his English father, who joins the British army and has globe-trotting adventures in the 19th century, from Afghanistan and the Punjab to Hungary and America. Two albums, Irish Melody and Shamrock Song, tell of Lester's childhood in Ireland.
