Das klassische Ritterepos um Prinz Eisenherz und die Ritter der Tafelrunde erlebt mit der neuen Gesamtausgabe des Bocola Verlages eine glänzende Wiederkehr. Endlich gibt es eine Reihe, die die Abenteuer des Prinzen von Anfang an erzählt und dabei die qualitativ überragende Originalkolorierung der zwischen 1937 und 1971 in den USA erschienenen Sonntagsseiten beibehält.
Die Prinz Eisenherz Hal Foster Gesamtausgabe wird in achtzehn großformatigen (23 x 32 cm) Bänden erscheinen, die neben den Comics auch eine Fülle von Informationen rund um Prinz Eisenherz enthalten werden. Alle 1788 von Hal Foster gezeichneten Seiten der weltberühmten Saga wurden aufwendig digital überarbeitet. Erleben Sie die Abenteuer des Prinzen mit dem Singenden Schwert in ihrer bisher schönsten Form!
Resuming my reading of Prince Valiant after long hiatus and I'm finally done with Volumen 14 before the new year starts. This time around after many pages of "light adventure" in previous volumes, the story goes back to full scale warfare and castle intrigue.
In this Volume of Prince Valiant, Hal Foster keeps effortestly dribbling all the common cul-de-sac that a lot of comics that came AFTER usually fall on: Keep everything the same. Our main hero, good old Valiant, has to worry about his job as a knight of King Arthur's court while his son,, Prince Arn, follows his steps into also becoming a respectable warrior, and all this while War looms around the corner.
Prince Arn brings a lot of freshness to the book and it's so nice to see a character who was a small baby playing night and getting lost in the woods now being an acomplished squire and adding a new worry to his mother, the unwavering Aleta.
This is pretty rote by now - go, find, read, savor. That Foster pulls this off for so long is nothing less than a miracle. The series is continuing its shift from Val to Arn, and that's fine as it lets him revisit some story ideas and show a like father like son structure.
In this volume, Val and family return and into a storm of action! There is War coming as King Arthur faces a massive Saxon invasion and must faced them at a place called Badon Hill. In between bloody action, there is comic , romance, and at one point Aleta is kidnapped (again). Hal Foster is a master.
