Le Devin

The adventures in this series are largely self-contained, meaning you can read them in any order without missing essential plot developments. While the characters and their village remain consistent, there are no ongoing story arcs that require you to have read previous volumes.

Elements of this plot were incorporated into the 1989 animated film Asterix and the Big Fight, which also draws from the album of the same name.

The artwork contains several anachronistic visual gags, including a scene where the villagers are posed in a manner reminiscent of a Rembrandt painting and another where they pose as if for a photograph, long before either existed.
