Asterix #22

In "Asterix And The Great Crossing," Asterix, Obelix, and Dogmatix set out on a fishing trip that takes them far beyond the familiar shores of Gaul—straight to North America. There, they're captured by the eccentric Vikings Huntingseåssen and Herendethelessen and brought back to their remote homeland, where they encounter a mysterious slave with ties to their own village. With René Goscinny’s sharp wit, Albert Uderzo’s expressive art, and the distinctive touch of Anthea Bell and Derek Hockridge’s translations, this adventure blends humor and curiosity in a story that’s as much about discovery as it is about the enduring spirit of the little Gauls.
