It is August 1959. In an apartment building in Bobigny, on the outskirts of Paris, two comic book writers are wiping the sweat from their brows. Not only because of the summer heat: the two friends are working hard to find an idea for a hero. They must be ready for the first issue of Pilote, a new magazine for young people, which will be published in three months. The scriptwriter is named René Goscinny. His friend, the illustrator, is Albert Uderzo. They had thought about adapting Renard the Roman, but someone else had thought of that before them. So, they search. But they find nothing… Until Goscinny has the idea of a small Gaul, stubborn and moustached. Bam: Asterix is born. And with him, a tremendous publishing success as well as a social phenomenon.
