Asterix

Asterix, the classic French comic series, arrived in the United States with this 1970 William Morrow and Company run, collecting four issues of the indomitable Gaul's adventures. Translated by Anthea Bell and Derek Hockridge, the stories were brought to life by the iconic creative duo of writer René Goscinny and artist Albert Uderzo. This edition introduced American audiences to the spirited village that defies the Roman Empire, capturing the wit and charm that made the series a global phenomenon. It remains a key entry point for Asterix's enduring legacy in English-language comics.
