C''est bien connu, dans les albums d''Astérix, les Gaulois adorent se bagarrer. Le Papyrus de César, signé Didier Conrad (dessinateur) et Jean-Yves Ferri (scénario), ne dérogera pas à cette règle imaginée par Albert Uderzo et René Goscinny dès 1959. Ce document vous dévoile les étapes de création d’une des cases les plus complexes du nouvel album, véritable prouesse technique signée Didier Conrad. Le dessinateur détaille son processus de création : « Il y a plusieurs étapes. Il y a le découpage, très précis, qui met tous les éléments en place. Le crayonné, ensuite, est une sorte de remise au modèle pour être sûr que le trait colle au style d''Uderzo. L''encrage, enfin, emballe le tout pour que la dynamique fonctionne. Il y a toujours un petit réajustement, parce que ces étapes ne sont jamais réalisées en continu. Chaque étape est souvent réalisée à plusieurs semaines, voire à plusieurs mois, de distance. Il y a un nouveau regard à chaque fois. »

Astérix, Obélix et Idéfix sont de retour pour une 39e aventure. Accompagnés du plus célèbre des druides, ils s’apprêtent à partir pour un long voyage en quête d’une créature étrange et terrifiante. Mi-aigle, mi-lion, énigmatique à souhait, le Griffon sera l’objet de ce grand voyage ! Toujours réalisée par le talentueux duo formé par Jean-Yves Ferri au scénario et Didier Conrad au dessin, nul doute que cette nouvelle aventure proposera une quête épique et semée d’embûches à nos héros à la recherche de cet animal fantastique ! Le duo, toujours à pied d''œuvre pour imaginer de nouvelles aventures, s''inscrit dans le fabuleux univers créé par René Goscinny et Albert Uderzo.

Les Pictes ? Oui, les Pictes ! Ces peuples de l’ancienne Ecosse, redoutables guerriers aux multiples clans, dont le nom, donné par les Romains, signifie littéralement « les hommes peints ». Astérix chez les Pictes promet donc un voyage épique vers une contrée riche de traditions, à la découverte d’un peuple dont les différences culturelles se traduiront en gags et jeux de mots mémorables.
