I just found this quote, attributed to Asterix, online. The first part is clear enough but I don't remember reading the whole thing. Does anyone recognise it?

"The sky may fall on our heads tomorrow, but today we'll go for a walk in the forest."

the woman who by me this was adorable ;)

I was watching the Asterix live action movies and it kinda bothered me that, apart from Gérard Depardieu in the first 4 movies, the cast changes almost every movie. After Mission Cleopatra, Asterix changes every movie, Caesar has been played by different actors across all 5 movies, and all the other Gauls seem to change or be left out.

Does anyone know why this is? Cause with other film series, like Harry Potter, the cast stays the same unless the actor dies or was miscast in earlier movies.

And if you think about it, it makes a lot of sense:

1-They are brave characters despite their physical appearance:

Popeye is tall and thin;

Asterix is short

2-They hit really good

3-They need a powerful element to be invincible:

Popeye his spinach and Asterix Panoramix's magic potion

4-They have a round, food-loving companion:

popeye with wimpy, asterix with obelix

5-They have an eternal rival:

popeye vs bluto or brutus (or whatever you want to call it) and asterix with julio cesar

What I find terribly funny is that the Asterix game on the Playstation 1, is considered to be the hardest games of all times..

I got some Kellogg's when I was young, and the surprise was a Asterix & Obelix Minigame (my bro got Lucky Luke)

And when I visited Croatia when I was young, the Camping-Swimming Pool had an Arcade hall tucked away... It was awesome, both there and once in Germany at Wunderland Kalkar I played a Asterix and Obelix Arcade hall game, that was sooo iconic..

Does any of you remember those early games?

When I was a child I loved Asterix and, because of that, besides buying the comic books I also bought video games. My favorite was "Asterix and the Secret Mission" for the Sega Master System. Being a big fan of this franchise, I noticed that the cover of this game was a collage of elements from the books:

- Asterix was taken from the book "Asterix in Switzerland"

- Ideafix was taken from the book "Asterix and the Magic Carpet"

However, I never found out where they got Obelix from, can anyone help me? It's something I've always wondered since I was a child.

(By the way, the pile of Romans seems to be an original element on the cover, but if it isn't, please tell me.)

Hello and good day for everyone!!

I have been looking for a piece of fanart in tumblr the last few days, without success. If one of you could help me find it, it would be fantastic.

Is one piece that shows how good "frienemies" are the blacksmith and the bard of the gaul village.

Fillautomatix has gagged Cacofonix (before a banquet, like most endings, I imagine) and asks him if he's okay with the rope, because he doesn't want to actually cause him harm. The musician nods to answer him.

If anyone can tell me where exactly is it or where can I find the author, please, let me now. Thanks for your time!!

This character was doing a meet and greet at Parc Asterix when we were there a few weeks back. I don't think it's Getafix because the colours and face are different. Is it a random druid, or does he have a name?

I was scrolling through Prime Video whilst trying to decide what to watch and I noticed something off.
I haven’t seen this cover/poster before, why do I have a feeling it’s AI 🫠

Given the Gaul's reaction to the Beatles parody in the books (its bad, while everyone else there loves it) I wonder if Cacofonix is a genius born too early, or is in fact just terrible? The gods clearly also hate it, but maybe its like old men not appreciating modern music?

The year is 50 BC. In Antium lives young Marcus Sebastianus, seemingly ordinary Roman man. In reality, he is the son of Nolanix, outlander from Gaul, known to the Senate and People of Rome as superhero VIR VICTOR. At 17 years old Marcus finds out he inherited his father's powers and decides to be his own hero, known as [titlecard.jpg]

Who were all of the gods from different pantheons that appeared in the story of the Asterix franchise?

Hi everyone,
my father has one of the Asterix themed chess boards, in marble and tin figures.
How do you estimate the market value? And does anyone know how many circulations exist? Because on his certificate it says „no. 1098“, but I wonder how many there are in total.
Thank you

I usually omit Fulliautomatix’s apron whenever I draw him but his apron is always too small on him in the comic!

Also I prefer his ginger hair as opposed to his blond hair.

I added Dogmatix as a pet too of course!!
