Asterix and Co- your favourite gauls

Here is a post about your favorite Gauls- Asterix and Obelix and the rest of the gauls you simply like and cant resist a laugh while reading the books
The Adventures of Asterix is a series of French comic books by René Goscinny (stories) and Albert Uderzo (illustrations). Uderzo has continued the series since the death of Goscinny in 1977. The series follows the exploits of a village of ancient Gauls as they resist Roman occupation and refuse to come under Caesar's rule. They do so by means of a magic potion, brewed by their druid Getafix, which gives the recipient superhuman strength. This is often used for comic effect, as in a recurring sequence where the villagers sally forth from their village to rout the attacking Romans so easily as to consider it great sport. In many cases, this resistance leads the main characters to travel to various European countries (but also Egypt, America, India and other non-European locations) in every other book, while the remaining are set in and around their village.

The key to the success of the series is that it contains comic elements for all ages: young children like the fist-fights and other visual gags, while adults appreciate the cleverness of the allusions and puns that sparkle throughout the texts. Even after so many years after publication these comics are still widely read.
