Asterix remains the best-selling comic book in the world, though it has stiff competition right now from One Piece and Dog Man. These collections look to newer work by newer creative teams as well as new versions of the classics by the original creative team that made Asterix the success it is today, Rene Goscinny and Albert Uderzo. Will America catch up with the rest of the world?

Then, Vercingetorix's daughter, Adrenalin, is targeted by the Romans. Asterix and Obelix are assigned to protect her – but Adrenalin is young and strong, and may not want their help! Can Adrenalin stay safe, with or without Gaulish heroes? Finally, the geographer Cartographus tells Caesar a legendary beast, a griffin, may exist! The hunt is on.
