Sometimes I feel a bit bad for Astérix tho. Everybody loves Obélix because “ he’s funnier and cuter and he eats a lot and Astérix is sooo boring” and stuff and I’m like “C’m on, look at this little guy. He just wants to protec”.

#he tries his best okay #astérix #asterix #astérix et obélix #i still think it's funny that goscinny wanted the audience to identify with the smart little guy #but everyone fell in love with obélix instead #the big strong naive guy that goscinny absolutely wanted to avoid #main character in old school franco-belgian comics tend to get it pretty rough in term of likeability #you'd be hard-pressed to find someone who favors tintin or lucky luke or spirou in their respective books
