About the series
In the 1970s, Brockhampton Press brought René Goscinny and Albert Uderzo's beloved Gaulish hero to English-speaking readers, with Anthea Bell and Derek Hockridge providing the celebrated translations. This 14-issue series follows the indomitable Asterix and his fellow villagers—including the ever-wary chief Vitalstatistix—as they outwit Roman invaders with magic potion and cunning. A landmark in British comics publishing, these editions introduced a global audience to the wit, wordplay, and historical satire that made the original French series a phenomenon.
