Every French person has heard these words at least once: “The year is 50 BC. Gaul is entirely occupied by the Romans. Well, not entirely… One small village of indomitable Gauls still holds out against the invaders.”
Written at the beginning of every volume of the adventures of Asterix, these are some of the most well-known words in French comics and French pop culture in general. They sum up an idea at the core of
Asterix: the irrepressible resistance against oppression, something fundamental to a series that started publication barely 15 years after the end of World War II.
First published in 1959 in the French comics magazine,

As a massive fan of the X-Men, I wanted to understand what made people fans of the Avengers. And while it started off dull, I was soon engrossed in the most compelling workplace drama I’d ever read. Once the series started focusing on characters who didn’t already have their own solo series and it was able to develop those characters instead of just throwing Iron Man and the Hulk at each other like action figures, it got really good.
