Anyone know if Pilote from that era is available anywhere on the www?Stevehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12010426017572710283noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32738097.post-8418882620158453932013-03-09T10:05:03.476+00:002013-03-09T10:05:03.476+00:00Spot on George - art page 34 of Asterix and the Bi...Spot on George - art page 34 of Asterix and the Big Fight.
