Follow the adventures of the world's most famous Christian knight! Val travels the world and manages to be a part of just about every major historical event from 300-800 A.D. The chronology may not be accurate, but the art is historically and geographically correct, and the plot and dialogue are faithful to the way people really thought and acted back then. By the great Hal Foster. Wonderful for reluctant readers and those who need some motivation to get excited about history; an incredible springboard to all sorts of important topics, from how to run a country to the difference between courage and foolhardiness. Terrific art, too! Each oversized four-color volume includes an entire year of Sunday newspaper strips!  $16.95 each.
