“MGM's Knights of the Round Table”

Based on the MGM motion picture of the same name, this 1954 Dell one-shot brings Arthurian pageantry straight to the comics page. The cover photograph captures a armored knight astride a horse draped in vivid crimson cloth emblazoned with golden lions, lance raised and red-plumed helmet gleaming — flanked by illustrated vignettes of a sword-bearing knight before a castle and two combatants locked in battle. Paul S. Newman and Dick Rockwell translate the grandeur of medieval chivalry into a ten-cent adventure that feels every bit as bold as the silver screen source it celebrates.
