Publisher's Synopsis

Hal Foster's Prince Valiant is the most illustrious heroic saga ever written and drawn for the Sunday newspapers. In full, glorious, restored color, this is the finest reproduction of this enthralling, romantic adventure serial ever published. This box set contains Vol. 10, in which Aleta is kidnapped, and Val fights famine. This volume also includes an introduction by legendary comics artist Timothy Truman and a special gallery containing more of Hal Foster's incredible Mountie paintings annotated by comics historian Brian M. Kane. In Vol. 11, Arvak the Red Stallion's first appearance occurs in this volume of the classically illustrative Sunday comic strip, based on the King Arthur myth. Bonus features include a gallery of Foster's rare and never-before-reprinted advertising art from the 1920s. There's a quest for the Holy Grail in Vol. 12. Also, Prince Val is trying to bust Sir Gawain out of jail.

About the Publisher

Fantagraphics Books

Fantagraphics Books

Fantagraphics Books has been a leading proponent of comics as a legitimate form of art and literature since it began publishing the critical trade magazine The Comics Journal in 1976. By the early 1980s, Fantagraphics found itself at the forefront of the burgeoning movement to establish comics as a medium as eloquent and expressive as the more established popular arts of film, literature, poetry, et al. Fantagraphics quickly established a reputation as an advocacy publisher that specialized in seeking out and publishing the kind of innovative work that traditional comics corporations who dealt almost exclusively in super-heroes and fantasy either didn?t know existed or wouldn?t touch: serious, dramatic, historical, journalistic, political, and satirical work by a new generation of alternative cartoonists as well as many artists who gained prominence as part of the seminal underground comix movement of the '60s. Fantagraphics has since gained an international reputation for its literate and audacious editorial standards and its exacting production values.
