Sir Launcelot

Few characters can claim roots as deep as Sir Launcelot, who made his comics debut in Ace Comics #28 back in 1939 — right at the dawn of the Golden Age — under the pen of the legendary Alex Raymond. Published by David McKay, this noble knight of Arthurian legend shares his pages with the likes of Prince Valiant, Alfred, and King Arthur himself, placing him in genuinely storied company. With a presence in the catalog stretching across an remarkable 73 years, from 1939 all the way to 2012, Sir Launcelot is a testament to the timeless pull of chivalric adventure in the comics medium.
