I am a huge, huge fan of Asterix since a small kid. I own about half of the books published up until the early 90s, and I've read them all at a public library when I was a kid. I haven't read the latest ones, the ones published from the mid 90s foward, but I intend to. I've heard that the last one is about an alien invasion! Which is really bizarre, because it goes out of the Asterix plotline base in such a drastic way, it would be like having a Star Wars book set in today's Earth...

Also, I kind of like Uderzo's way of writting, it's not as clever and brilliant as Goscini's writtings, but still he did a great job so far...

And I belive that as a kid I have watched "Asterix and Ceasar's Surprise" movie dozens of times...
