Description

Asterix and Obelix journey to the land of vendettas, familial pride and a dance like no other to show Julius Caesar that Gauls stand up for their friends. Asterix in Corsica is the 20th comic book in Uderzo and Goscinny’s series of books.

The Corsican Chief Boneywasawarriorwayayix is in trouble. Julius Caesar has set his eyes on his beloved nation yet again, and if there’s one thing Boneywasawarriorwayayix is sure about, it’s that no Corsican will bow before a foreigner. He turns to his old friends, Asterix and Obelix the Gauls, to help foil Praetor Perfidius’ plot. En route to Corsica, Asterix and his friends decide to hitch a ride on a ship, but Captain Redbeard has other plans for his passengers.
