Hal Foster's Prince Valiant: Far From Camelot

Created by Hal Foster in 1934 and gradually taken over by John Cullen Murphy in the 1970s, Prince Valiant remains an icon of graphic storytelling, noted for the dramatic action and superb detail of its artwork as well as its stories of love, friendship, and swashbuckling adventure set in the days of King Arthur. Written by Mark Schultz and drawn by Gary Gianni since 2004, the strip continues in this great tradition. In this collection of 182 full-page, vividly colored episodes, Val and his son Nathan run afoul of Pictish warriors, while Nathan's young heart is captured by a young shaman girl. Then Val, captured by the Viking Skyrmir, finds himself in Africa, seeking King Solomon's treasure.
