Animation StyleĪsterix the Gaul is a rather basic animation in style, especially when compared to other animated films made at the same time. In the animated film, however, Obelix and Cacofonix are shown in their developed forms, although Julius Cæsar is still different to his later portrayals. Thus, in the comic Obelix is not quite how he would be later portrayed, Julius Cæsar has a sharp, pointed nose rather than his more usual aquiline nose and Cacofonix lacks the 'Elvis' hairstyle he later adopts. As it was the first Asterix adventure, the characters in the book were still forming and it took a while for the drawings of some of the characters to settle down into their fully evolved state. The Asterix the Gaul comic was originally published, similarly to the original publication of Charles Dickens' classic novels, in serialised form, in Pilote Magazine in 1959. Only a few minor visual details from the book are different, such as the number on a milestone next to the Roman road, or the colour of the ox dealer's shirt, but in every important visual detail it follows the original. It follows the very first Asterix comic book extremely closely, and is almost a frame-by-frame adaptation. The first Asterix animated film, Asterix the Gaul 1, was made in 1967. ![]() ![]() | Asterix: The Secret of the Magic Potion
