An Asterix Adventure #[7]

Goscinny and Uderzo take their beloved Gaulish heroes across the Pyrenees in this 1971 Brockhampton Press hardcover. Uderzo's cover art shows Asterix and Obelix clinging to a rope on the cliff's edge, a sweeping painted map stretching behind them with "Gaul" and "Hispania" clearly marked — a wonderfully dramatic sense of cross-border adventure. A small dark-haired boy is tucked in Obelix's arms, hinting at the company the pair will be keeping on their Spanish escapade.
