Very nice chapter. I had a good laugh with the gladiators' salute and Elisabeth's entrance. Very funny scene!

Can't wait to read more of this!

Oh yeap, I am a fun of Asterix know the series since I was child. It was the best, funniest series of all times! Great idea to make that connection with Jack, he does indeed fit in this particular comic!
Thanks for the icon-comment... yeap it makes my day whenever I use it!

Are you from Europe, btw?

Oh yes the pirates! So funny they are! And if I recall there was one of them who was trying to tell his captain they were in trouble but the captain was not listening! How fitting with POTC! Good choise!

Yes luv, I am actually from Greece.
