 | | One of the earlier Asterix books, this one has the village's leader, Vitalstatistix, called out by a rival village leader who's become a pawn to the Romans for a one-on-one fight. |
 | | All well and good, being the Vitalstatistix, like the rest of his village, is invincible, as long as he has the magic potion-- the only problem is that, thanks to a small fumble with a menhir, Obelix has transformed druid and chief potion-maker Getafix into a drooling idiot. |
 | | Predictable, of course-- anyone who's watched two or three episodes of a sitcom knows exactly how to cure Getafix-- but the pleasure, as always, is in the journey, not the destination. |
