Astérix et les Goths = Asterix and the Goths (Asterix, #3), René Goscinny
Asterix and the Goths is the third volume of the Asterix comic book series, by René Goscinny (stories) and Albert Uderzo (illustrations). It was first published in 1963 in French and translated into English in 1974. Asterix and Obelix, nervous about Getafix traveling alone to the annual druids' conference in the Forest of the Carnutes, accompany him on his journey and remain outside the forest during the conference. Meanwhile, on the Roman Empire's border, two legionaries are captured by a band of Goths (Tartaric, Esoter ...more

By only book 3 of the series we are already comfortably settling in. Another reviewer has already mentioned how remarkable it is that it didn’t take the creative team of Goscinny & Uderzo much time to find the sweet spot, both in terms of artwork and content.

I rescued this battered former library copy from a used bookstore. I was stoked that this was a hardcover Asterix graphic novel. I have never actually beheld one ever.

This was classic Asterix, its humor usually built around puns and word play. The story for this volume was fun, as Asterix and friends set up the Germanic tribes of the Goths so that they wouldn't invade Gaul and Roman for a while. It's cool that it has a bit of history too.

I'll still be looking for more Goscinny and Uderzo Asterix to shore up my collection. I have around 5 books so far and I'm keen to add more. ...more
