Asterix and Tintin - The Best Comic Books ever
Asterix Comics:
Compiled by Rene Goscinny and illustrated by Albert Uderzo, Asterix Comics is really a number of French comic books which was first published within the late 1950's. However, after the death of Rene, Uderzo took up both tasks and has played an instrumental role in raising the popularity of the books.
The primary characters in the Asterix Comics are Asterix, a clever little Gaul, and the friend Obelix. The primary plot is dependant on their little Gaulish village that is the only one not under Roman conquest, much towards the Chagrin of Julies Ceaser, the Roman Emperor.
The Gauls have so far managed to avoid occupation thanks mainly with the aid of a magic potion made by their druid, Getafix. This magic potion gives each villager superhuman strength and only Obelix is the one that doesn't need the potion as he fell in to the potion cauldron as a child and therefore it has a permanent effect on him.
Asterix Comics or even the Adventures of Asterix and Obelix have been translated into a lot more than 30 languages worldwide and have also received numerous awards along the years. I personally love the Asterix Comics for their amazing sense of humor and tongue-in-cheek interpretations of various people and events.
Tintin Comics:
Tintin Comics or even the Adventures of Tintin, created by the Belgian artist Georges Rémi who wrote under the pen name of Hergé, is really a series of classic comics that have gone on to become probably the most popular comics from the Twentieth century. Its popularity has soared with translations published in additional than 80 languages so that as per Wikipedia, more than 350 million copies of the books happen to be sold up to now.
The primary protagonist of the comics is Tintin who plays a young Belgian reporter. Accompanying him through the books and nearly as famous as him is his pooch Snowy. Also included within the books are a handful of recurring characters which are necessary to the storyline. A few of the major characters include the brash, cynical and grumpy Captain Haddock, the brilliantly intelligent but always-lost Professor Calculus. Inserting a dash of humor in the books using their clumsy antics may be the twin duo of Thomson and Thompson, the incompetent detectives.
