On its sixtieth anniversary, the strip looks back on Prince Valiant's eventful life as many threads begin to come together in a climactic and fateful series of events that will change the face of Camelot. Dire times are ahead for Prince Valiant and his companions, as a three-way war erupts between Arthur's British kingdom, the Picts, and the Jutes; Aleta, Maeve, and Ingrid are thrown into prison by Lord Hussa; Camelot falls to a barbarian army; and King Arthur makes a last stand. Plus: Galleries of the best images from Prince Valiant by its creator Hal Foster chosen by artist admirers and comic-strip experts.

Universally acclaimed as the most stunningly gorgeous adventure comic strip of all time, Prince Valiant ran for 35 years under the virtuoso pen of its creator, Hal Foster. Starring a daring and gallant young hero, the series features epic sword fights, elaborate scenes of pomp and pageantry, and breathless plotting that always leaves the reader wanting more. Fantagraphics' deluxe editions, each collecting two years' worth of Sunday strips, boast superbly restored artwork that captures every delicate line and chromatic nuance of Foster's art.
