- 1Readers Toast the Pun Names of Asterix Translations●Another palate-cleanser # Asterix read between novels. I do love the pun names in the English translations, by Toutatis,
A reader is praising the wordplay in the English translations of the Asterix comic series, calling them a perfect palate-cleanser between novels. Highlighted favourites include Roman prefect Odius Asparagus, Gaulish child Picanmix, Phoenician trader Ekonomikrisis, and a pair of Roman guards, with the post signing off with the Gaulish oath 'by Toutatis'.
