“Two Roman centurions end up in floods of tears over two very familiar new recruits. School march-past practice will never look the same after this much army slapstick.”
Obelix falls in love, and the Gauls end up in Roman uniform.
Asterix the Legionary is a classic comic adventure about two Gauls who join the Roman army to bring a fiancé home.
On a boar hunt, Obelix meets the lovely Panacea and is smitten. But she is engaged to Tragicomix, who has been conscripted and shipped off to Africa. Obelix promises to bring him back, so he and Asterix enlist, to the dismay of the officers in charge.
