Asterix – The Mansions of the Gods 1998 1st Edition Turkish Edition Comic Turkey

Asterix – “Asteriks Tanrılar Sitesi” (The Mansions of the Gods) – Turkish Edition, Remzi Yayınevi (1998)

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 Tanrılar Sitesi”, the Turkish edition of The Mansions of the Gods, written by René Goscinny and illustrated by Albert Uderzo. In this story, Julius Caesar attempts a new strategy to conquer the indomitable Gaulish village not by force, but by urban development by constructing a luxurious Roman housing complex meant to “civilize” the Gauls. The result is a sharp and humorous satire on urbanization, consumerism, and Roman imperialism, making this one of the series’ most socially observant adventures.

Published in 1998, this book is Series No. 21 and represents the first edition of this title in the Remzi Yayınevi Turkish Asterix series. Its thematic depth, classic Goscinny-era storytelling, and excellent production standards make it a key volume within the collection.
