Description

One of Albert Uderzo's masterpieces is undoubtedly the Asterix Legionnaire album, whose pages are among the most sought-after on the worldwide collector's market. Originally published in Pilote magazine 385, March 1967. In Caesar's camp, Asterix and Obelix try to locate Tragicomix, Falbala's fiancé, who has been conscripted against his will into the Roman legions in Africa. Premium page featuring 4 splendid panels featuring Asterix and Obelix, Caesar's spy, HCL, and Caesar himself! The Uderzian magic is at work from the first to the last panel. We find Uderzo's graphic genius at work, balancing the curves of his strokes with the use of caricature and humor, all of which blend perfectly with Goscinny's narrative.

One of may fav Asterix books and this is a superb page. I'm a little stunned how little attention pages from Uderzo seem to get on here.

Just wonderful!
