I think that your version above was the one I came across when I searched to 
make sure I wasn't posting something too derivative: I really like your
Asterix, but I was more interested in doing something smaller scale.

Note that in the larger scale you can draw his shortsword quite
accurately, whereas in small scale, I was at a loss as to how to
draw it without it looking... um.... well, try for yourself!
So I left it out of the picture...
