Asterix the Gladiator -- Asterix and the Banquet -- Asterix and Cleopatra.

Asterix mixes it up with everyone from Julius Caesar to Cleopatra in this outstanding Omnibus! Asterix conquered Europe ironically by keeping his tiny village in Gaul from being conquered by the Roman Empire. Turns out, Asterix and his fellow villagers have a secret weapon, a potion that imbues them all with super strength. But the Romans aren't about to give up no matter how many times Asterix and his friends fend them off.
