Asterix is celebrating 60 sensational years as an international comics superstar, and in the first collected edition from Papercutz, the stories are newly translated into American English for a new generation of fans! The story of Asterix starts here. These are the first three adventures of Asterix as he defends his tiny village from the overwhelming forces of the Roman Empire. Join the short, spunky, and super-powerful warrior from Gaul and his faithful friends--including the boar-eating delivery man Obelix and the ecologically-minded canine, Dogmatix--as they battle to protect their village against impossible odds. Asterix Omnibus volume one collects "Asterix the Gaul," "Asterix and the Golden Sickle," and "Asterix and the Goths." Three classic adventures in one great volume.
The hysterical historical hero from the Roman era continues to conquer the world! With more than 330 million copies sold and 11,000 websites devoted to the series, Asterix is a global sensation. These engagingly witty and record-breaking books have become the highest-selling series ever even surpassing Harry Potter.
Every fan will have to own these gift-quality volumes, the first two in a projected series. They'll all be released in one-off printings to increase their collectibility, and each will have special spine artwork that builds across the entire set. It's an incredible, irresistible value!
For the first time ever, the three stories that started it all are gathered together in one beautiful collector's volume! Asterix the Gaul introduces us to our indomitable hero and his friends, who try to defend one small Gallic village from the surrounding Romans. In Asterix and the Golden Sickle, he, Obelix, and Lutetia try to buy a new sickle for Getafix. But somehow the sicklesmith has disappeared without a trace. And Asterix and Obelix have to ride to the rescue when the Goths kidnap Getafix in Asterix and the Goths.
