Critics Review
…combines its trademark graphics with a brand of comic-book art more readily associated with Alex Raymond’s Flash Gordon series. Its format and jokes remain comfortingly familiar, and the later are still not afraid to keep one eye on contemporary concerns - TIMES LITERARY SUPPLEMENT - Toby Lichtig
Asterix and the Falling Sky has done what few series manage to do - it has moved into the future while maintaining all the historical elements which make it so popular with fans around the world. Here’s hoping for another album before too long, by Toutatis! - WESTERN MAIL CARDIFFnew readers and particularly children will enjoy the wonderful illustration, characters, and, most importantly, the humour of the latest book - FRENCH MAGAZINEAbout The Author
