Astérix #12 - Asterix Vol. 12 : Asterix at the Olympic Games

The Olympic Games have arrived in Athens, and athletes from all over the ancient world are gathering to compete for glory. Asterix and his fellow Gauls, always up for a challenge, decide to join in on the action. But there’s a major problem: the use of magic potion, their secret weapon for strength and invincibility, is strictly prohibited!

Without their trusty potion, Asterix, Obelix, and the rest of the Gauls are left to rely on their natural abilities, which, as always, are considerable. But can they really win the Games without the extra boost of their magical elixir?

As the competition intensifies, our heroes face off against the greatest athletes of the ancient world—each more skilled and determined than the last. But there’s a new twist in the air: a mysterious potion is being brewed in a shed on the outskirts of the Games, in a cauldron with a door that won’t stay shut. What’s the secret ingredient in this potion, and could it give the Gauls the edge they need to secure victory?

With their usual mix of humor, adventure, and cleverness, Asterix and his friends set out to uncover the truth behind this mysterious potion while navigating the fiercely competitive world of ancient athletics. Will they emerge victorious or be outclassed by the best the ancient world has to offer?

In this thrilling and comedic adventure, Asterix and his village face their toughest challenge yet—proving that true strength comes not from magic, but from determination, friendship, and a little bit of clever thinking.
