Knackerix

Knackerix is a minor character in the Asterix universe, the long-running Franco-Belgian comedy series set in an unconquered Gaulish village resisting Roman occupation. Published by Egmont Ehapa for German-speaking markets, the character inhabits a world of magic potion, menhirs, and indomitable Gauls.

Born from the legendary creative partnership of René Goscinny and Albert Uderzo, Knackerix made their debut in 1973's MV Comix #15, stepping into the beloved Asterix universe during the Bronze Age at the height of that franchise's international reach. Published through Egmont Ehapa, this character inhabits a world populated by some of comics' most iconic Gallic personalities — sharing pages with Asterix, Obelix, and the faithful Idefix, among others. With appearances spread across both MV Comix and the Asterix series through the early 1980s, Knackerix represents a fascinating corner of that rich, humor-driven tradition for dedicated collectors and Asterix enthusiasts alike.
