La potion Astérix (2014)

A pequena aldeia de Asterix e Obelix é a pedra no sapato do imperador Júlio César: de toda a França, a aldeia gaulesa é o único local que não é controlado pelo Império Romano. O maior problema, segundo os comandantes da legião romana, é a força descomunal dos gauleses, conseguida através de uma poção mágica preparada pelo druida Panoramix. Entretanto, o comandante Detritus tem um plano para derrotar os gauleses: capturar Obelix e o druida Panoramix.

No ano 50 a.C. a Gália é ocupada pelos romanos. Mas, a pequena vila de Asterix e seus amigos ainda resiste com a ajuda de uma poção mágica, que lhes dá uma força sobre-humana. Desesperado para descobrir a poção secreta dos gauleses, um centurião romano passa a espionar a vila. O objetivo é se tornar invencível e acabar com qualquer obstáculo entre ele e o trono de César. Mas, Panoramix, o druida da vila prepara uma poção especial para ele. Nosso herói Asterix dá a ele a mistura: um tônico poderoso que faz seu cabelo crescer, crescer...

You may not recognize the name Ralf König, but you probably recognize his art. One of the most commercially successful German comic book creators, he is best known for books like “SchwulComix (GayComix)” that offer a twisted take on queer culture. Equal parts Tom of Finland and R. Crumb, König’s comics are sexually charged and often politically incorrect, portraying daily routines of gay life alongside serious subjects like AIDS. King of Comics is a touching portrait of a cutting-edge artist with a wicked sense of humor. All hail the king! —Jimmy Radosta

O imperador romano Júlio César sempre quis derrotar os irredutíveis gauleses, mas jamais teve sucesso em seus planos de conquista. Até que, um dia, ele resolve mudar de estratégia. Ao invés de atacá-los, passa a oferecer os prazeres da civilização aos gauleses. Desta forma, Júlio César ordena a construção da Terra dos Deuses ao redor da vila gaulesa, de forma a impressioná-los e, assim, convencê-los a se unir ao império romano.

For over twenty-five years, John Porcellino has self-published his zine, King-Cat Comics & Stories, which, through simple artwork and storytelling, investigates the essence of just being alive. In King-Cat, John beautifully renders the "in-between moments" - those instances which occupy the bulk of our lives, but can pass easily without notice: Sitting on the front porch. Peeing at a rest stop. Watching a bird. With humor, compassion and a keen eye, John shows readers what they might be missing, and in doing so inspires many to embrace life more fully. Born of the zine revolution of the late eighties/early nineties, King-Cat today is the template for cartoonists who seek to create work that is personal, well-crafted and free of outside influence.
