Prince Valiant, Vol. 4: 1943-1944

Prince Valiant, Vol. 4: 1943-1944

Haunted by his long-lost love, Prince Valiant journeys back to the land of his birth.
As this fourth volume begins, Prince Valiant, haunted by Aleta, seeks Merlinâ€™s wise counsel. This brief episode segues into one of Hal Fosterâ€™s patented epics, â€œThe Long Voyage to Thule,â€ which ran for seven straight months and featured Valiantâ€™s return to his birthplace and reunion with his father. Of course, Fosterâ€™s astonishingly detailed and evocative depictions of Valâ€™s homeland contribute greatly to this sprawling epic.

After a series of shorter adventures including â€œThe Seductress,â€ â€œThe Call of the Sea,â€ and â€œThe Jealous Cripple,â€ Val finally decides he can stand it no more and sets out to find his long-lost love. Long-time fans know that his quest will eventually be successful, but Foster throws so many obstacles in the way of true love that the saga â€œThe Winning of Aletaâ€ would end up stretching a full year and a half, well into the next volume.

With its stunning art reproduced directly from pristine printerâ€™s proofs, Fantagraphics has introduced a new generation to Fosterâ€™s masterpiece, while providing long-time fans with the ultimate, definitive version of the strip. 112 pages of full-color comics
