History is about to made once again as the Chieftain of the Gauls’ daughter will soon cross paths with Asterix and Obelix in a new album

Sixty years after he first appeared in the pages of the magazine Pilote the hero Asterix, created by two geniuses René Goscinny and Albert Uderzo, is back.

If Asterix and Obelix thought they could recover from their last expedition in the tranquil setting of their beloved Armorica, they’d better think again. A mysterious teenage girl has just arrived in the village escorted by two Arverni chiefs. Caesar and his legionaries are searching for her and with good reason: word on the ground in the village is that the visitor’s father is none other than the great chieftain Vercingetorix, who was defeated at Alesia.

Commenting on the new adventure, the two authors revealed about the incredible discovery, “From what we know of the chieftain’s daughter, she’s a rebellious teenager. Hardly surprising — it can’t be easy having a name like Vercingetorix.”

They added, “We did quite a lot of research into her for the album — her appearance, name, and personality. As you may know, Vercingetorix didn’t give away much about his private life and there are a very few historical sources. But you’ll see, we’ve managed to track down quite a collection of scoops.”

The new Asterix and Obelix adventure, Asterix and the Chieftain’s Daughter, will be published in the UK on the October 24, once again created by the celebrated Jean-Yves Ferri and Didier Conrad.
