Customer Reviews

Just as I remembered!

For those of you familiar with the adventures of Asterix and Obleix, the magic is as you remembered. For those that would like to know what all the fuss is about, I invite you to join in the adventures of the two heros that have just a bit of History and a barrel full of laughs woven into the tales. The panels are beautfully drawn, the dialogue just as artful. I am also happy to say that time has not lowered the standard of the printing, colours are bright and the paper stock is heavy as in the past and I am comparing the current to approx. 30 years prior! Enjoy!

I loved these as a child

I am so glad to see these wonderful comics be printed in omnibus editions. I am so looking forward to seeing more of these becoming available. I understand that there were at least 33 of these done and I want them all. Since they were produced when I was growing up, I appreciate all of the humor that they had. I want the whole set.
