Description:
|
|
«It's spainful» is one of the many puns in the album, where the authors' talent is still true to form. The characterisation of Pepe and Huevos y Bacon is such that they go beyond the context of the album, becoming heroes in their own right.
Asterix albums are very faithful (in their own way) to the chronology of historical events. This one features the Battle of Munda (45 BC), in which Caesar defeats Pompey's generals. The battle follows on from that of Thapsus (46 BC), which is referred to in Asterix the Legionary, and which saw Caesar winning a decisive victory over the troops and supporters of Pompey.
