Asterix in Britain by René Goscinny

“Asterix in Britain” is a comic book written by René Goscinny and illustrated by Albert Uderzo. It was first published in 1966 and is part of the popular Asterix series, which follows the adventures of a Gaulish warrior named Asterix and his friend Obelix in Roman-occupied ancient Gaul.

In this particular adventure, Asterix and Obelix travel to Britain (which is portrayed as a caricature of Great Britain during Roman times) to help a British chieftain, Anticlimax, resist Roman occupation. The story is filled with humor, puns, and satire, as the characters encounter various British stereotypes and cultural references.

As with other Asterix comics, “Asterix in Britain” combines historical settings with fantastical elements, including the magic potion that gives Asterix and his fellow Gauls superhuman strength. The comic celebrates themes of friendship, resistance against oppression, and the triumph of the underdog, all while delivering plenty of laughs along the way.
