Asterix is the protagonist of the famous French comic series Asterix. This comic series was written by Ren é Goscinny and illustrated by Albert Uderzo, and has been serialized in the French magazine Pilote since 1959.
Astkes was a short but very brave Gallic warrior. He and his companions lived in a small village in Gaul, which was occupied by the Romans in 50 BC. The uniqueness of this village lies in the fact that the Druids (wise men) in the village have concocted a magical potion, and those who drink this potion will gain immense power. Asterix uses this power to fight against the Romans. He wears a winged helmet on his head, with a vivid and energetic image.
Comic stories showcase the rebellious spirit of Gauls in a humorous and witty manner. Astkes and his friend Obelix, along with other villagers, constantly thwarted various conspiracies of the Romans and guarded the freedom of the village. The story is full of jokes about history, exaggerated depictions of different ethnic personalities, and various wonderful adventure plots.
