Assurancetourix. My HS French is so rusty that I have no idea what that might even be starting to pun on. I also have to rewind my brain to the late 60's to see if there is some reference that only reallyold farts would get. But, yes, Cacafonix, nee Assurancetourix, is the funniest of all of them. He doesn't even have to appear in the book until the last frame and he still gets my biggest laugh. I especially loved it when they used him as Roman Repellant in the "Mansions of the Gods".
