Asterix – Asterix and the Magic Carpet 1996 1st Edition Turkish Edition Comic Turkey

Asterix – “Asteriks ve Şehrazad” (Asterix and the Magic Carpet) – Turkish Edition, Remzi Yayınevi (1996)

Description:

This is a Turkish-language, softcover Asterix comic published by Remzi Yayınevi as part of the publisher’s long-running and highly regarded Asterix series issued between 1994 and 2020. Over the course of this period, a total of 37 Asterix titles were published, making this the most complete and faithful Turkish Asterix series to date.

Printed entirely in color and produced to European album standards, the Remzi Yayınevi editions are widely considered the closest Turkish printings to the original Franco-Belgian albums, both in physical dimensions and translation quality. Unlike earlier Turkish editions that often involved altered dialogue, localized humor, or format compromises, this series aimed to remain highly faithful to the original artwork, storytelling, and tone.

This volume contains “Asteriks ve Şehrazad”, the Turkish edition of Asterix and the Magic Carpet, written and illustrated by Albert Uderzo. The story takes Asterix and Obelix far from Gaul on an exotic journey inspired by Middle Eastern folklore, featuring flying carpets, desert kingdoms, and playful references to One Thousand and One Nights. Published in 1996, this book was released as Series No. 15 and represents the first Turkish edition of this title by Remzi Yayınevi.
