Asterix: Asterix The Legionary by Rene Goscinny
The latest action-packed adventure from our indomitable Gauls, Asterix and the Griffin, is out now! Obelix is in love - but the beautiful Panacea is engaged to Tragicomix, a conscript in the Roman army. Who'd have expected to see Asterix in a legionary's uniform? When he and Obelix join up to rescue Tragicomix from North Africa, Centurions Nefarius Purpus and Dubuis Status don't know what's hit them. But the Gauls and their fellow recruits have a smashing trip abroad.
It is almost impossible to single out one album from this remarkable comic book series, but Legionary comes closest to perfectionA masterclass in comedy to read again and again -- Robin Etherington * The Big Issue *
