Contains 4 stories
The Nameless Knight
6 pp · Adventure
Prince John (villain)The Nameless Knight (introduction)

A masked knight who bears an uncanny resemblance to Robin Hood arrives in Sherwood Forest with a dangerous secret—and Prince John's scheme to exploit it. When the Nameless Knight infiltrates Robin's band under false pretenses, he discovers the location of a hidden treasure meant for King Richard, setting off a chain of betrayals that tests the loyalty of the Merry Men. Frank Bolla illustrates this tale of deception and hidden identities, where a cursed face becomes the key to untangling treachery in the heart of the forest.

The Great Sir Lub
7 pp
Lub (introduction)Robert Murdach (villain)

Lub dreams of knighthood and glory among Robin Hood's Merry Men, but his clumsy reputation leaves him stuck doing menial chores while the others get the adventure. When Robin and his band head to Nottingham Fair to rescue two captured fellows from Robert Murdach's soldiers, Lub seizes his chance to prove himself—donning mismatched armor and wading into the fray, only to bungle things in a way that sets off a chain of unexpected consequences.

Run from the Red Knight!
7 pp · Adventure
The Red Knight (introduction, villain)Mother Hampton (introduction)

When Sir Galant flees the tourney rather than face the Red Knight in combat, whispers of cowardice follow him—but his true mission lies at Castle Gules, where the Lady Joanna and her brother languish as prisoners. Haunted by a mysterious old woman's hypnotic gaze and trapped in an enchanted castle that crumbles around him, Sir Galant must overcome impossible odds and a devastating deception to rescue the innocent and confront the Red Knight on his own terms.

Sage of Sherwood Forest
6 pp · Adventure
Sir Gui (villain)Bertram o' the Green (introduction)

When evil Sir Gui learns of Bertram o' the Green and his legendary gift of second sight, he forcibly summons the forest sage to his castle and demands answers about capturing Robin Hood—threatening torture if the old man refuses. Robin discovers Bertram's abduction and launches a daring rescue along the forest roads, relying on keen observation and the natural world itself to outmaneuver Sir Gui's armed forces. This tale by Frank Bolle explores whether true wisdom comes from magic or something far more practical.
