Even now, at the tender age of 69, if I happen to see an "Asterix" comic laying about in some second hand shop, I stop have a quick look, sometime buy it and wallow in memories............ Those comics, once a month, helped make life more bearable in the early 70ies while working in W. Germany. They took the mickey out of my ancestors, the Romans, in more ways than one could imagine, but always brought out a chuckle from me R.I.P Monsieur Uderzo
