“Asterix in Britain”

About this Collection

This volume collects the classic Asterix adventure in which the indomitable Gaul and his friend Obelix travel to Roman-occupied Britain to help a cousin resist Caesar's legions, delivering a barrel of magic potion along the way. Originally serialized in Pilote and later published as a standalone album, this edition from Dargaud International Publishing presents the story in English translation, preserving the humor and cultural wordplay of the original French work by René Goscinny and Albert Uderzo.

In "Asterix in Britain," the indomitable duo sets sail for the misty shores of Albion, where Asterix and Obelix join forces with Asterix’s first cousin’s tribe to resist Roman occupation and deliver a vital barrel of the magic potion. René Goscinny, Anthea Bell, and Derek Hockridge craft a lively adventure steeped in humor and Celtic charm, brought to life by Albert Uderzo’s iconic artwork and his precise inks, with the cover by Albert Uderzo himself capturing the spirit of the journey.
