Asterix and the Black Gold

When a Phoenician merchant forgets Getafix’s order for rock oil, an essential ingredient in the magic potion, Asterix and Obelix set off to prospect for “black gold” in the Middle East. Along the way, they must contend with a Roman secret agent, Dubbelosix, and his folding chariot fitted with spy gadgets.

Asterix and Son

A baby boy is left in a basket outside Asterix’s hut, leaving Asterix and Obelix facing unfamiliar child-care. Meanwhile, Crismus Cactus, Prefect of Gaul, disguises himself as a Gaulish nursemaid, and the Romans pursue the child as Brutus hatches a plot against Julius Caesar.

Life in the village is disrupted whenever Cacofonix performs, with clouds gathering and rain falling. A fakir arrives on a magic carpet seeking help to end a drought in his kingdom, where his daughter Orinjade faces sacrifice to the gods, and Cacofonix’s talents become unexpectedly useful.

Asterix and the Secret Weapon

The village mothers hire Bravura, a woman bard, to teach their children, causing shock in Ancient Gaul. Bravura, Asterix and Obelix become unlikely allies as they push back against Julius Caesar’s secret weapon, with even Cacofonix drawn into the struggle.
