It's not as interesting. Garsceny started out writing a couple of other comics, Iznugood was racist but not in an overtly "We should do colonialism" way, more in a "This story is set in the middle east and I'm a european born in the 1920s" kinda way and Lucky Luke (The portrayals of Mexicans here is very iffy). Both of which are pretty good but have problems with representation. He briefly worked for Tintin magazine handing ideas over to other writers who would then flesh them out. Then he wrote Asterix, but died in the 70s, so the artist took over and continued the series on his own until 2009 when he retired.
