50 Years of Asterix

Asterix is coming to Rhodes... There will be an exhibition celebrating 50 years of the comics featuring the little Gaulish warrior at the French 'Inn' on the Street of the Knights in the Old Town of Rhodes. The exhibition will run from Saturday 10th July until Friday 30 July. Personally I've been a fan since I was a kid, and even now I find the comics, which can be bought at many peripteros, an invaluable aid in learning Greek - although having said that you don't get many opportunities to use phrases such as 'μαγικό ζωμό' ('magic potion'), 'αγριογουρούνι' ('wild boar') and 'αuτοί οι Ρομαιοι ειναι τρελοί' ('these Romans are crazy...').
