4.06 AVERAGE


This wasn't my first-time read of Asterix #1.

To date, I thank my father for introducing me to Asterix and gang, though I watched the movie, at the time. Same concept, different representation.

It's been a long time coming but I finally got around to starting with the Asterix comics! Asterix the Gaul was hilarious - a classic tale of outwitting the enemy army with sheer cunning (and a little bit of magic, of course), I couldn't help but draw parallels with the grim story of Iron Man and how he escaped his own captors with the help of Ho Yinsen, the scientist to Asterix's Getafix. Except with more than a shade of humor.
Looking forward to rest of the series.

Feels so good to re-read this again,so many quips i may have missed as a child are now in front of me! Asterix is always fun. Especially when you have had a long day and all you need is some silly laughter.
