Possibly the beginning of the decline. I recall The Great Divide as being fun and having some of the depth Goscinny gave to Asterix's adventures, but Black Gold starts showing how sorely missed he was.

Of all Uderzo's solo editions, I consider this to be the 'best of the worst'. It's not up to par with Goscinny's work, but it's getting close. Decent plot, but the ending's a bit weak.

Una de las historietas de Astérix a las que más cariño tengo. La falta de [a:Goscinny|19818304|Goscinny|https://s.gr-assets.com/assets/nophoto/user/u_50x66-632230dc9882b4352d753eedf9396530.png] nos deja un guión más pobre y que descansa más en los juegos de palabras pero [a:Albert Uderzo|26082|Albert Uderzo|https://images.gr-assets.com/authors/1233487522p2/26082.jpg] ha crecido como dibujante y lo suple con paneles espectaculares y personajes maravillosos. Ceroceroseix el druida es la mejor actuación que hizo Sean Connery tras dejar la saga Bond hasta los Intocables.

4.5* (rounded down to 4 on goodreads)
Loved the puns and the fun Asterix and Obelix had in trying to get the black gold. I do feel sorry for the pirates who never catch a break. Maybe one day they will!!! I loved the play on James bond and the end joke on Asterix. A lot of fun!

Algo mejor que el anterior, pero se sigue echando de menos a Goscinny una barbaridad. Muchos de los chistes no funcionan y los que lo hacen es más por nostalgia de cómics anteriores o porque Sean Connery xDDDDD.
