Book Overview
Asterix mixes it up with everyone from Julius Caesar to Cleopatra in this outstanding Omnibus!
After conquering Europe, where this feisty, little warrior is a true pop culture super-star, Asterix is invading America with another three classic adventures, newly translated into American English. Asterix conquered Europe ironically by keeping his tiny village in Gaul from being conquered by the Roman Empire. Turns out, Asterix and his fellow villagers have a secret weapon, a potion that imbues them all with super strength. But the Romans aren't about to give up no matter how many times Asterix and his friends fend them off. These classic comics are not only incredibly entertaining, but the historic figures are brought to life in a way that's exciting and humanizing, providing educational elements similar to the Geronimo Stilton graphic novels.

Just as I remembered!
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 14 years ago
For those of you familiar with the adventures of Asterix and Obleix, the magic is as you remembered. For those that would like to know what all the fuss is about, I invite you to join in the adventures of the two heros that have just a bit of History and a barrel full of laughs woven into the tales. The panels are beautfully drawn, the dialogue just as artful. I am also happy to say that time has not lowered the standard of the printing, colours are bright and the paper stock is heavy as in the past and I am comparing the current to approx. 30 years prior! Enjoy!

I loved these as a child
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 16 years ago
I am so glad to see these wonderful comics be printed in omnibus editions. I am so looking forward to seeing more of these becoming available. I understand that there were at least 33 of these done and I want them all. Since they were produced when I was growing up, I appreciate all of the humor that they had. I want the whole set.
