Astérix fête ses 50 ans le 29 octobre! All those of you who like reading comics will no doubt have heard of Astérix and Obélix (if not you will have to try reading them!). The comic books are very popular in France (and in lots of other countries too - they have been translated into more than 100 languages!) The books follow the exploits of a village of ancient Gauls as they resist Roman occupation. You might have heard of the Parc Astérix near Paris? There are a lot of celebrations planned in Paris to mark his 50th birthday. “La Patrouille de France” (the French Air Force aerobatic team) have even paid homage to the famous Gaul.
