Who is Tifus?

Tifus is a character from the Asterix universe, the beloved Gaulish comedy series by René Goscinny and Albert Uderzo, published in German through Egmont Ehapa. The character inhabits the world of Asterix and Obelix, set in ancient Gaul during Roman occupation.

Born from the legendary creative partnership of René Goscinny and Albert Uderzo, Tifus made their debut in 1972's MV Comix #16/1, stepping into the beloved Asterix universe during the Bronze Age. Over a twelve-year run, this character found a home across titles like Asterix and Asterix Mundart, sharing pages with none other than Asterix and Obelix themselves, alongside the likes of Titus Redeflus, Alpaga, and Claudius Überflus. Published through Egmont Ehapa, Tifus represents a fascinating corner of the Asterix world as it flourished in the European market — a character whose modest catalog footprint only adds to their collector's-curiosity appeal. For fans who love digging deeper into the rich, sprawling Gaulish saga beyond the headline adventures, Tifus is a rewarding discovery.
