“Fakenius, a Roman soldier suspicious of the sun rising in the east, would fit right into some family WhatsApp groups. Proof the newer albums still poke fun at today’s world.”
Frozen plains, fearless warrior women and a beast the Romans badly want.
Asterix and the Griffin is a classic comic adventure set in snowy Barbaricum, where the Romans hunt a legendary creature.
A huge Roman force is closing in to capture the Griffin, a creature the Sarmatians hold sacred. To find it, the Romans have kidnapped the niece of the old shaman Fanciakuppov. He calls on his Gaulish friends, so Asterix, Obelix and the druid Getafix head into the snow, where fearless Amazon warrior women join the fight.
