"Nudity"?

[edit]

Exactly what part of the album contains nudity? The only thing that comes to mind are the beautiful slavegirls in one panel wearing only just enough to cover their "naughty bits". But that hardly counts, does it? JIP | Talk 16:24, 23 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

The mention of nudity was removed from the article in July 2010. I have read the comic many times and have not seen any nudity. As I said above, the closest the comic ever comes to nudity is the cute slavegirls shown when Asterix and Obelix go to the slave market to get themselves sold as slaves.

Allusion to Boulanger?

[edit]

The equivalent article on French wikipedia says that the scenes in the slave market are a visual allusion to the picture of that name by Gustave Boulanger. Thoughts? Opera hat (talk) 14:06, 2 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Particular Graphic Violence

[edit]

I have read "Asterix and the Laurel Wreath" several times. I am wondering where are the mentioned scenes of "particular graphic violence"?

Perhaps when Asterix and Obelix beat up various people, such as the two male slaves (the one who says they smell of wine and the snobby, handsome Greek slave), their usual share of Roman legionaries, and the gang of robbers who come to rob them? That's the only "graphic violence" (or rather, violence at all) I could find in the book. JIP | Talk 19:04, 7 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]
