Shoutout to Arteriosclerosis and Gastroenteritus the legionaries. Honourable mention to Cantankerus the general.
This has always been a super memorable installment. Child me loved the druid conference with all the magic potions. The door (where it gets bashed in a bunch of times) and translator scenes have lived in my mind rentfree since I was like 5. Little me didn’t appreciate the Metrix system pages because I didn’t want to read all that, but I think they’re fun now. The only part little me didn’t like was all the stuff with the torture, cause I had way too strong an imagination.

Mucho mejor que Astérix el galo. El dibujo sigue siendo tosco, el argumento es similar al del primer tomo (los romanos secuestran a Panorámix para conseguir el secreto de la poción/los godos secuestran a Panorámix para conseguir el secreto de la poción. Astérix va en su rescate y ambos trazan un plan que consiste en que los secuestradores se aticen entre ellos para escapar), pero funciona muchísimo mejor. Los chistes fluyen genial (sobre todo los de juegos de palabras, en este caso los druídicos xD), la parte de las guerras godas es más graciosa y el subtexto es mucho más profundo y crítico (tema de fronteras, invasión, las alusiones al nazismo, etecé). Premio para Obélix, que aquí tiene un papel más relevante que en el anterior y cuya simpleza (que no estupidez) da algunos de los mejores ratos del cómic.
