Alix: Difference between revisions

'''''Alix{{PAGENAME}}''''' is a French-Belgian comic series created by Jacques Martin in 1948. It may be considered the serious, historically accurate counterpart to the more famous ''[[Asterix]]'', which it actually predates. It is a classic example of the ''ligne claire'' school popularized by Hergé.

The title character is a young Gaul from the 1st century BCE who, after being captured and enslaved, is adopted by a rich Roman and becomes a Roman citizen himself. He goes through various adventures that take him all over [[The Roman Republic]] and beyond—atbeyond--at one point, all the way to [[Imperial China|Han Dynasty China]]—and--and becomes a friend of [[Gaius Julius Caesar]]. His [[sidekick]] is a teenage Egyptian boy, Enak, and his [[Arch Enemy|nemesis]] is a scheming Greek named Arbaces.
