4.02 AVERAGE


Voilà le quatrième tome des aventures d'Astérix et on a encore droit à une histoire de kidnapping. Trois des quatre premières histoire sont sur l'enlèvement d'un des membres du village. À la longue, ça devient redondant. Voilà pour le négatif.

Pour le positif, je peux dire qu'il y a quelques scènes qui sont très drôles. J'ai bien aimé dans l'école des gladiateurs et quand ils sot recherchés. C'est ce côté que j'aime des aventures d'Astérix.

It's tough to be Caeser. People keep giving you presents, likea Gaul who can't sing and whose musical talents scare hungery lions.

Luckily, Asterix is here to save the day!

Very easy and fun read, it was a shock to find out that they changed the dog's name. The dog is only mentioned in the second page, but I'm so used to the French version, hearing Idéfix as Dogmatix was a surprise. Nevertheless, very slapstick based and historically inspired.

Cacophonix is the unlikely star of this one! Enjoyable as always.

I really loved Asterix as a kid, and now having to revisit it for college, it was a shock to me to find such racist caricatures in it.

Z pierwszych trzech tomów komiksów o niezwyciężonej wiosce Galów, ten jest na razie najlepszy!

 This one had fun gags and an interesting plot, but this is the third kidnap + rescue mission in a row.
