Details: This handbook offers readers a completely new perspective on the legendary adventures of the Prince with the singing sword. The German translation of the Definitive Prince Valiant Companion, published by Fantagraphics (USA) in early 2010, combines a summary of the Prince Valiant stories up to page 3783 (2009) with many, partly unpublished photos and rare, partly new contributions. In addition to a previously unreprinted newspaper feature from 1949, the handbook contains Foster's last interview, conducted with Arn Saba, further extensive interviews with John Cullen Murphy and the new Prince Valiant team, Gary Gianni and Mark Schultz. Profound essays - for example, on the artistic classification of Foster in the history of comic art and illustration - complete the handbook. A special highlight, shortly before the 75th anniversary of this famous adventure comic, are sixteen selected color pages from the entire run of the series: 8 Foster pages, newly scanned from original proofs and digitally processed, four proof pages from the private Murphy collection, and four Gianni pages, selected and re-colored by the artist. Overall, the book offers a detailed insight into the artistic commonalities and differences of Hal Foster, John C. Murphy, and Gary Gianni.
