DESCRIPTION:
This first-ever Prince Valiant boxed set collects over six years of Hal Foster Sunday strips along with tons of supplementary art, photos, and essays! Hal Foster’s Prince Valiant is one of the most magnificent adventure comics ever and Fantagraphics’ reprinting is the loveliest treatment of the strip in the history of publishing. Despite being one of our most popular series, we have never produced a holiday gift box set until now, and this deluxe package includes the first three volumes of the series, collecting the first six years of Foster’s run, from 1937 through 1942! Full color, in a custom slipcase
. Though remaining involved with the strip until his death in 1982, Foster handed the bulk of the scripting and art chores over to his longtime assistant, John Cullen Murphy, in 1971. Hal Foster (1892-1982) created Prince Valiant in 1937
“One of the greatest comic strips of all time and a peak in visual splendor and breath-taking adventure, the story of Prince Valiant’s 30+ year odyssey is getting a marvelous presentation in Fantagraphics’ series of books.” - The Huffington Post
