Asterix is more aimed at children, compared to Tintin. Also, one of the best/funniest parts of Asterix is the constant wordplay, which often does not translate well (though the translators do try).

> the constant wordplay

That's why I consider them more adult comics. I discover something new every time I re-read them.

Yeah, but Hockridge and Bell did an amazing job with Asterix. It's still hilarious in English.
