well, I promised an Asterix dump, here we go.
>>77447247
bumpity, shit's wack yo
>>77447247
Are you guys doing alright?
>>77447303
I mean, shit, my fucking street is empty.
I wanted to jogg...
They just said at the radio "Don't go out, stay at home".
>>77447331
So they basically encourage you to go shitposting online instead.
>>77447368
asterix is never shitposting.
>>77447379
I didn't mean your thread specifically. Asterix is always qualityposting.
Except that one about aliens.
>>77447421
>Except that one about aliens.
urgh, don't remind me.
which one should I dump now? I seriously have basically nothing else to do the whole day.
And my studio is 10m2.
Do you have the Legionairy?
>>77447752
Good taste!
It's actually one of my favorite.
>>77447767
>one of my favorite.
Mine too
Right in the feel.
>>77447247
>just finding out now
Christ. I'm glad you're fine.
>>77447869
I just realised how they adapted some puns in the english version.
>>77447797
I like how Getafix isn't above making fun of Obelix too.
>>77447889
thanks to 4chan, I read *c uck* instead of *click*
>>77447880
Yeah, the translations are interesting, I have this one in German. Asterix is a series where it's necessary that the translators are creative.
>>77447880
Ptenisnet (Courdeténis) for best character
Thanks for the storytime, frenchbro. Hope you and everyone you know are doing okay.
I love how Asterix show Caesar.
It's the "bad guy", and yet, he isn't evil at all.
Ha, fuck that, I just need my jogging.
It should be fine now.
I hope I can come back alive.
>>77447984
Seeing Caesar get humiliated is always comedy gold.
>>77448033
Stays safe, frenchanon.
>>77448033
good luck frenchbro!
>>77447469
Je crois qu'il nous demande qui on est.
Putain la bonne époque.
Back!
Which one should I dump now?
>>77448389
...Cauldron. I love Cauldron.
>>77448389
Holy Terror by Frank Miller :^)
>>77447247
Bon courage, frère. Hope you're doing fine.
Thanks for the dump too, it's my first time with Asterix after hearing of it for so long.
>>77447288
>chief choleric
fucking kek
>>77448425
Cauldron then.
Maybe I should start translating Delirius from Druillet.
Or play some Chakan. (I really have nothing to do the whole day).
>>77447568
These silly gags always crack me up.

For once, they did nothing bad.

Also, any good desktop chair recommandation? (I wanted to buy one today).
Those Captcha are crazy.
>>77448952
Those boars look so tasty.
>>77448962
>playing_spy_in_tf2.jpg
>>77448957
Asterix boars have always looked really tasty. The fact that they eat them contently likely helps convince us too.
So, I will work on that Delirius translation for now.
You can dump another asterix if you want.
>>77448919
Nice cameos from Goscinny and Uderzo in the bottom panel, there.
>>77449009
I believe this is one of only two times Asterix uses his sword in the entire series, with the other one being in Caesar's Gift.
>>77449422
Asterix in America (to cut the apple).
>>77447812

how is valeaddedtax' potion practical in that sense? it just takes out pain, not grant invulnerability. his arms would still be scorched
>>77449713
maybe it's invulnerability but just against heat.
now dump the 'falling skies' as a reminder of where Asterix is right now
Thanks for the dump OP, I love seeing how they managed to translate Asterix jokes in english
>>77449440
Maximvs kekvs
>>77447450
Thank god for Schengen. Importing foreign druids got so much easier.
>>77447331
People went out when Boston got bombed. Glad they got all eight of those motherfuckers.
>>77447880
Goscinny considered the English translations the best. It helped that he knew English.
Well, translated 10 pages of Delirius. My head is quite dizzy. Tell me how it is, what I should improve, etc.
>>77451207
I'm not saying it's completely deserted, but quite a lot compared to the normal (shop, museum, and co being closed doesn't help though).
>>77447247
And you never will.
Get rekt, fags
Many thanks OP
>>77448896
>does it pay ?
>I see you've never done any acting
Lord, my sides.
>>77451667
What makes it even funnier is that nowadays being an actor is the best payed job
>>77451724
Like being a footballer: only if you are on the top.
>>77451724
in movies maybe, but not in a theater.
>>77451759
even the shittiest actor has it good. And you can always get on top, if you're good andjewish
BTW, I wonder if people are aware that there are also editions of Asterix with lexicon (the blue colored). I'm saying because I replaced these with my old white versions. The lexicons are great because they explain certain influences, parodies, and historical background

>BTW, I wonder if people are aware that there are also editions of Asterix with lexicon (the blue colored). I'm saying because I replaced these with my old white versions. The lexicons are great because they explain certain influences, parodies, and historical background
never saw that.
>>77451848
I guess that it's unique to Poland.
We love Asterix so much that we released a version with extra historic trivia and background stories, and influences behind certain characters
I thought that other countries had it as well
>>77451899
hmm, nope, we don't have them in France.
Any scan?
>>77451914
Give me ten minutes or less
>>77451936
neat
will post moar
the quality is not the best, but I only want to show how it looks like. This page is an introduction.
It summarizes the era when the volume was created, when it debuted, how, and some trivia
example
every entry was listed alphabetically
this page features the entry for characters, places in regard to this particular issue, atrium - explaining what it is, and quotes like Beati Pauperus...
>>77452057
>>77452009
>explanation for the latin citation
damn, I wouldn't mind if we had those in the french version.
>>77452089
plus context and source for particular quote.
Like Aleia Acta est being said by Ceasar before some battle and Veni Vidi Vici.
The lexicon is scanned from the volume Le Domaine des Dieux
One of character was a parody of Guy Lux. I don't know who he is, but I know this trivia thanks to lexicon
>>77452135
also the Quosque Tandem entry explain that the quote was taken from the speech of Cicero during the Catiline conspiracy (thank you uncle google)
>>77452135
he was a popular presenter on french TV.
>>77452163
It's good that the lexicon explained it because I think that the reference might be dated, and that way, now I understand the reference, when this dude advertises "godly" apartments during the gladiators' battle
also we have this neat book end.
If I'm not wrong, the newest volume will also have the lexicon version.
>>77452225
also the volumes are available in two formats of course: hardcover and softcover.
Another thing that is unique to poland, is that you buy european comics albums / volumes in bookstores, while american comics are sold in newstands.

Anyone notices that Asterix was partially revolutionary? I don't remember many comics using different fonts to accentuate different language, etc.
In many ways, Asterix was way more mature than a lot of DC / Marvel comics, it's just that it never gets the credit, because most folks think that the comic is targeted towards kids. Yet, they love to watch Asterix movies.
It's kinda funny, because my mother who considers comic books trash, thinks that Asterix is a piece of pure art.
any other Asterix you would like dumped?
I will play some Chakan now.
>>77452522

>>77451388
Allo allo OP? I hope that these dastardly muslims didn't blow you away from this thread?
>>77452738
sheeiit where did you find that?
>>77448916
someone turn panel 4 into a reaction image
>>77452767
different anon, but I assume it's from Heavy Metal magazine
>>77452767
It was translated ages ago, but it's been out of print for decades. There's a new translation coming out next month on Amazon but the typesetting seems a little... shit.
>>77452945
And the original translation for comparison.
>>77452585
Let's do this (managed to complete another level in that fucking game thanks god).
>>77452786
any scans? Because if it's the cause, there is no need for a translation.
>>77452522
the gladiator, plz.
I love Asterix, i started reading them when I was in elementary and helped fuel my interest in linguistics and classical terms
>>77452972
What the fuck happened to that book
>>77452945
>>77452958
sheeiiit
Well, look like I don't need to translate it after all.
Maybe another comic would need it?
>>77452990
I said "Assume". I'm not 100% certain
Heavy Metal used to translate such stuff.
The covered Urm the Mad for fuck sake.
But nowadays, nope
>>77453000
Don't ask, it's the scan I found...
>>77452990
>The cause
my brain is melting.
>>77449440
Bonum est.
Polishfag. Funny trivia.
Goscinny means in Polish literally "a person who enjoys guests".
It always baffled me that while Polish Jews changed their names to more Polish sounding, they never wanted to change them back, even if they migrated. One could think that Goscinny being in France would actually want to use the name of his grandparents.
>>77453081
*I mean "person who enjoys having guests"
nothing sexual bros
>>77453086
How to not like that last panel?
More people should read french comics.
I'm not french
>>77453104
>no one has ever read us
Oh Obelix, you're so silly.

That scan is actually quite bad, I must admit.
>>77453331
Those first three panels crack me up.
