Germany/Netherlands

Dogmatix's birthday is an international event - that much is clear! The special edition of Asterix and the Banquet will be available in bookshops in Germany and the Netherlands, celebrating our favourite little dog!

Astérix Parade!

To mark his birthday, Dogmatix makes the front page of the Journal de Mickey! A fine tribute, and all the more moving when you think that Albert Uderzo, aged just seven at the time, was one of the comic's original readers when it was first launched in France in 1934.

Astérix au Muséoparc

"Alesia... never heard of it!" Chief Vitalstatistix often says. But Albert Uderzo wanted to see the place for himself! He travelled to Alesia to visit the Asterix exhibition, which is on until the autumn at the Muséoparc . His verdict: it was parktastic!!!
