Ordralfabétix

Ordralfabétix is the fishmonger of Astérix's Gaulish village, introduced in the Astérix comic series. He is a proud and quarrelsome merchant whose fish, hauled from distant waters, are notoriously less than fresh — a fact his neighbours never let him forget.

Few comic characters can claim nearly six decades of page time in one of the most beloved Franco-Belgian series ever published, but Ordralfabétix has been a recurring presence in Astérix since his 1966 debut — a Silver Age arrival brought to life by the legendary duo of René Goscinny and Albert Uderzo. Published by Éditions Albert René, he's woven into the rich, raucous fabric of that indomitable Gaulish village, sharing adventures alongside Astérix, Obélix, Abraracourcix, Idéfix, and the formidable Cétautomatix across 28 catalog appearances. Whether you're a lifelong fan of the series or just discovering its wit and warmth, Ordralfabétix is one of those wonderfully crafted supporting characters who reminds you why this world has enchanted readers across generations.
