Pneumatix

A minor but memorable face from the beloved Franco-Belgian world of Astérix, Pneumatix made their debut in 1966 — the Silver Age — courtesy of the legendary creative duo René Goscinny and Albert Uderzo. Sharing the page with iconic figures like Obélix, Idéfix, Panoramix, and the rest of the irrepressible Gaulish village, Pneumatix exists in one of comics' most cherished and enduring universes, one that has kept readers laughing across nearly five decades of publication. With only a handful of catalog appearances, this is precisely the kind of deep-cut character that true Astérix devotees delight in spotting — a small thread in a very grand, very funny tapestry.
