Asterix Compact Omnibus 7 (Hb)

Asterix omnibus volumes collect several complete albums into one hardcover, and this compact edition follows that pattern. The series, created by René Goscinny and Albert Uderzo, is set in a Gaulish village that keeps holding out against Roman occupation, largely thanks to a druid's strength potion. Its comedy runs on anachronism, puns and characters who never change and never need to. The compact omnibus format reduces the page size from the standard album while keeping the full-colour artwork, which makes a thick volume easier to hold and easier to shelve than the separate books. Format notes: • Several complete Asterix adventures bound into one hardcover • Compact page size rather than the full album format • Full-colour artwork retained throughout • Part of the Asterix series begun by Goscinny and Uderzo Suited to comic readers, collectors filling gaps in a run and families who share a bookshelf, available from Boipoka.
