    Prince Valiant

    The first episode of Prince Valiant in the Days of King Arthur appeared on February 13, 1937. Foster was 44.

    The mythology Hal Foster created was captivating. King Aguar was driven from Thule (now Norway) by the usurper Sligon. The deposed monarch fled with his queen and young son, Prince Valiant to the wild fens of Britain. Val loses his mother at a young age then decides to venture off to become a knight. Along the way he acquires "Flamberge - The Singing Sword," a blade forged by the same mage who created Arthur's legendary Excalibur. He is knighted by King Arthur on the field of battle, helps his father reclaim his throne, and later wins the heart of Aleta, Queen of the Misty Isles, whom he marries.

    The tales were so epic that Edward, The Duke of Windsor, called Prince Valiant the "greatest contribution to English literature in the past hundred years."
