Quando il cielo gli cadde sulla testa. Asterix

I've always loved the Asterix books. I grew up on a literary staple of Tintin and Asterix so this kind of thing will always have a place on my shelf. However... this was disappointing. The satire and historical Easter Eggs that these books are famous for are blatantly absent. True, there is some hum Leggi tutto

Yeah, so Goscinny was always the ideas man and Uderzo's stories will never live up to that, but even with that in mind, this is dire. It's not that Asterix facing aliens and comic book heroes couldn't work. There have certainly been weird crossovers in the franchise before. But Uderzo seems to have a Leggi tutto

Asterix the Falling Sky – a disaster of an Uderzo story; the Gaulish village is visited by competing alien races respectively intended to represent Disney and manga cartoon styles (evenly-matched, you see)

Never thought I'd ever see an Asterix book I did not like, thought that the writer took advantage of the waves of fame and decided to milk it for nothing. Worst storyline, did not like the illustrations, honestly did not know where the story was going. Horrid horrid horrid

I thought I hadn't read this...but I have...sigh... Not a great story at all. This is plain to see it's not the originals. It's supposed to be a tribute from Uderzo to Walt Disney, who inspired him to be an artist...so in that regard I'm thankful. Otherwise, it's a silly story about aliens and silli Leggi tutto

A disgrace rather than a tribute to comics, Disney & manga. The worst Asterix album ever made and one of the worst bd ever released.
