Asterix the Gaul by René Goscinny

5.0

The first comic in the series introduces our little Gaulish village keeping up their resistance against the Romans with the help of their druid Getafix's magic potion and the shrewdness of their warrior Asterix and the menhir delivery guy Obelix (who fell into the magic cauldron as a baby but still keeps making excuses to have some magic potion whenever he can. Vitastatistix the village chief wanders around the village on a shield carried by 2 men and offers advice whenever needed.

This comic has the druid getting kidnapped by the Romans and it's upto Asterix to try and save him. The comic is funny and a quick read.

A best way to increase the number of books on your read list.
