Out May 31, 2014.
In this volume, which collects two years of the long-running
Sunday newspaper strip based on the Knights of the Round Table, an
interracial baby is born and Nimue bewitches Merlin.
In our
ninth volume of the collected illustrative Sunday comic pages, Arn tries
his hand at being a warrior, Merlin is bewitched by Nimue, and Tillicum
and Boltar have a son named Hatha – the first interracial baby “born”
in comics. Most of the second half of this volume follows Gawain and
Val’s pilgrimage to the holy city of Jerusalem, and Queen Aleta’s return
to the Misty Isles where treacherous nobles seek her throne…and her
death. Also featuring a look at Prince Valiant’s 1954 escapades on both
the large and small screens by Foster scholar Brian M. Kane. As with all
the previous volumes in this highly acclaimed series, these pages are
reproduced for the first time from Foster’s personal set of color
engraver’s proofs, the most impeccably produced Prince Valiant series ever produced. Full color throughout.
