Asterix And The Missing Scroll, the new volume from Jean-Yves Ferri and Didier Conrad will launch in three weeks time, on the 22nd October and will instantly be the biggest selling single comic book title of the year. Star Wars? Attack On Titan? Peanuts to Asterix… available here in the US, here in Canada and here in the UK.

The Missing Scroll is Caesar's… could it be the famous Comments on the Gallic War? What will they have said about a certain village of Gaul's at the outermost stretch of the Roman Empire that stays independent?

But we have the bad guy. The Roman ne'erdowell Libellus Blockbustus… take a look at how he is drawn.

And soon village life is back to normal, with Obelix raising everyone's spirits.

Can they get through a volume without being sunk by Asterix and Obelix as usual?

And we even get homage to one of the original, most striking images of Asterix by Uderzo… knocking a Roman out of their sandals…

Twenty days to go…
