The Prisoner of Zenda

Pendulum Press’s 1978 adaptation of The Prisoner of Zenda condenses Anthony Hope’s classic swashbuckling novel into a single, illustrated issue. Scripted by John Norwood Fago with art by Nestor Leonidez, this entry in the publisher’s line of literary comic adaptations brings the tale of a lookalike Englishman thrust into a Ruritanian throne-room conspiracy to a new generation. It’s a concise, visually driven gateway to a timeless adventure story.
