“A Monster Met on the Road to Calais”

In "A Monster Met on the Road to Calais," Robin ventures into the English countryside, tracking a fearsome armored boar—only to uncover a trap set by Prince John. Captured and imprisoned in an arena, Robin escapes by riding the beast through a palisade, then spots a familiar clue: King Richard’s kerchief waving from a distant tower. With his men launching box kites in a daring plan, Robin takes flight to rescue the king. Written by Bob Haney and illustrated by Joe Kubert, with a striking cover by Luis Dominguez, this 1976 DC Special delivers a thrilling blend of medieval intrigue and inventive heroism.
