Asterix legionario

I would venture to guess that the vast majority of European children from the early 1960s through today have read some, if not all, Asterix comic books. Probably many times over. The first 24 editions are, in my opinion, the best comics ever written. These French comics were written by Rene Goscinny Leggi tutto

This is the seventh volume in the “Asterix” comics, I haven’t read the first six ones but I will start soon because this comic absolutely dazed me! The Roman empire has invaded most of the areas in their reach but surprisingly they haven’t been able to conquer the little Gaulish village. The Gauls a Leggi tutto

The plot of this one will likely appeal to romantics, but it’s a bit silly, on the face of it, to be fair. I can’t see the “last holdouts” against the Roman invaders sending their two best warriors away to look for the boyfriend of a young Gaulish girl on a whim just because Obelix is infatuated.

কতদিন বাদে অ্যাস্টেরিক্স পড়লাম। অনেক হাসলাম। বিশেষত, মিশরীয় লোকটার কারণে, যে আবার হিয়েরোগ্লিফে ছাড়া কথা বলে না। ওদিকে ওবেলিস্কও আবার প্রেমে হাবুডুবু। সবমিলিয়ে দারুন! লোকে যাই বলুক, আমার এই জিনিস বাংলায় না হলে রোচে না। আনন্দ পাবলিশার্স ওদিকে আবার মাত্র ১৩টা অনুবাদ করেই থেমে গেছে। কপাল :) Leggi tutto

Don't get me wrong -I enjoyed this very much- but not with the same abandon as Asterix usually delivers. There's a choppiness to it that slows the plot flow and many jokes that don't really deliver. I blame the co-cast of fellow legionaries that were recruited with them and especially the translator Leggi tutto

First published in French in 1967 as Astérix légionnaire , it was first published in English in 1970. Beautiful , young , Panacea returns to the village , after two years studying in Condatum (Rennes) , and Obelix falls head over heels in love with her.

Obelix is in love! He falls for Panacea, who unfortunately is already in love with Tragicomix. When the duo catch her crying after she received a letter from Tragicomix that he had been conscripted into the Roman army, they promise to go and rescue her lost love. This results in Asterix and Obelix j Leggi tutto

"The trouble with you Romans is, you aren't delicate or poetic. And the trouble with me is, I'm so shy and retiring." "Hear what that mastodon said?" Probably my favourite Asterix ever.
