    Alternate title: 
    Prince Valiant. Volume 8, 1951-1952
    Prince Valiant, 1951-1952
    Description: 
    1 volume (unpaged) : color illustrations ; 36 cm.
    Notes: 
    Edited by Gary Groth with Brian M Kane.
    Summary: 
    "A reprinting of Hal Foster's sumptuous epic -- still scanned directly from Foster's personal collection of syndicate proofs. The entire first third consists of the second half of the 15-month-long (!) Roman epic The Missionaries, which includes a dramatic, life-changing experience for Prince Geoffrey (aka Arf ) at its climax. After a brief stay back in Camelot (where the irrepressible Val and his friend Gawain indulge in some not-very-knightly pranks that end up costing them dearly), the two, accompanied by Arf, are summoned back to Thule, where Aleta presents Val with new twin daughters! Foster also reintroduces such favorite characters as the piratical Boltar and the Indian princess Tillicum (now an unlikely romantic couple), and the year concludes with the beginning of Valhalla (another installment in the ongoing story of the problematic Christianization of the Vikings) -- which includes one of Foster's most dramatic and gorgeous splash panels (used here on the cover). And as a back-up, Prince Valiant Volume 8 includes an article by Foster scholar Brian M. Kane on Foster's near-forgotten Mounties ad campaign paintings from the 1930s, along with a number of gorgeous reproductions"--Publisher's description.
