Volume 7 - 1st printing. Basil Wolverton (1909-1978) born in Central Point, Oregon, later moving to Vancouver, Washington. He worked as a vaudeville performer and a cartoonist and reporter for the Portland News. Wolverton was a master in caricaturing the human face and body and his drawings have elicited a wide range of reactions; he even described himself as a "Producer of Preposterous Pictures of peculiar People who Prowl this Perplexing Planet." Preferring to work with pen and ink, Wolverton's lack of artistic schooling gave his drawings an otherworldly appearance. There was no other artist at the time who drew like him! Harvey Kurtzman felt "Wolverton never borrowed, never hacked, and he never shortchanged the public - Wolverton was an original." In 1991 he was posthumously inducted in the Jack Kirby Hall of Fame and in 2000 in the Will Eisner Hall of Fame. Collects Amazing Mystery Funnies Featuring Space Patrol (December 1939-September 1940), Target Comics Month featuring Spacehawk (June 1940-June 1941), and Weird Tales of the Future (June-September 1952).

Volume 3 - 1st printing. Collects Asterix and the Big Fight, Asterix in Britain, and Asterix and the Normans.

Written by Rene Goscinny. Art and cover by Albert Uderzo.

One of the world's greatest comics characters, the ever-fearless Asterix, continues to battle supposedly unbeatable odds to protect his tiny village from the Roman Empire. Fortunately, all of the villagers have super-strength thanks to a secret potion.

In "Asterix and the Big Fight," one of the three classic Asterix graphic novels collected here, the Romans are beginning to wise up. Instead of trying to conquer Asterix's village, the Roman's challenge Vitalstatistx, chief of Asterix's tribe, to a one on one battle with the Gallo-Roman Chief, Cassius Ceramix of Linoleum. As per Ancient Gaulish customs, the loser would forfeit his entire tribe to the winner.

"Asterix in Britain," the Romans have conquered all of Britain except for a single village in Kent. Sound familiar? Anticlimax, a member of that British village, travels to Gaul to seek help from his first cousin once removed, Asterix. Together, with Obelix, they decide to bring back a barrel full of the secret potion that imbues anyone with super-strength, but word leaks out, and the Romans will do anything they can to thwart this rescue mission.

Finally, in "Asterix and the Normans," Asterix encounters a group of Normans who want to learn all about fear, and that's just the tip of the iceberg as far as how many strange and crazy things happen in this particular adventure. We won't even mention which pop star is parodied in this story!

Just when you think you know what to expect in Asterix, the creators Goscinny and Uderzo throw things at you that you never could've imagined. That's probably why Asterix remains such a successful comics character to this day!

Volume 2 - 1st printing. Collects Asterix the Gladiator, Asterix and the Banquet, and Asterix and Cleopatra.

Written by Rene Goscinny. Art and cover by Albert Uderzo.

Asterix mixes it up with everyone from Julius Caesar to Cleopatra in this outstanding Omnibus!

After conquering Europe, where this feisty, little warrior is a true pop culture super-star, Asterix is invading America with another three classic adventures, newly translated into American English. Asterix conquered Europe ironically by keeping his tiny village in Gaul from being conquered by the Roman Empire. Turns out, Asterix and his fellow villagers have a secret weapon, a potion that imbues them all with super strength. But the Romans aren't about to give up no matter how many times Asterix and his friends fend them off.

These classic comics are not only incredibly entertaining, but the historic figures are brought to life in a way that's exciting and humanizing, providing educational elements similar to the Geronimo Stilton graphic novels.
