Prince Valiant
Greatness is his destiny...
 |
Out of the pages of the most beloved adventure comic strip of our time bursts a noble hero for all time... |
In an age of dark sorcery and mighty deeds, an unlikely champion has arisen in the court of King Arthur —
a lowly squire of unknown parentage who can defeat the King's best in jousting and swordplay.
His past is a mystery, his courage and loyalty unparalleled — and it is he who has been chosen to
safeguard the beautiful princess Ilene, herself as brave and able as any knight who stands by Arthur's side.
For foul treachery has invaded the realm, drawing a hero reborn into the land of the barbarian —
to battle a dread evil for the imperiled future of Camelot ... and to fulfill a destiny as magnificent as his name.
