Prince Valiant Vol.3: 1941-1942 (Hardback)

With this volume, Foster reaches, by common critical consensus, the peak of his drawing and storytelling prowess - a peak at which he will remain for most of the run of Prince Valiant. Almost the entirety of 1941's strips feature a single ten-month epic which sees Valiant on a globetrotting adventure fuelled by his obsessive search for Aleta, his bride-to-be - with stops in Jerusalem, the Arabic deserts and, inevitably, a harem which Val must infiltrate.
