Prince Valiant Two-fer Tuesday

Today's Two-fer Tuesday has a Prince Valiant theme.  To make them large enough to be legible click on each image. One of these is a recently ran honest-to-goodness Prince Valiant Sunday strip by Gianni and Schultz (originally by Hal Foster, starting back in 1937...sheesh! talk about a zombie strip)   The other is a hilarious spoof by Frank Cho's Liberty Meadows from several years ago (Liberty Meadows quit running new strips a few years back and, instead, has been running the entire run on a loop for a while now.  It recently started over again, frustratingly leaving the readers on the edge of its spectacular cliff hanger once again.  FINISH THE PLOT FRANK!!!). If there's one word to describe Liberty Meadows and Frank Cho's work its buxom.   There's maps in both of these strips.  Cho's Liberty Meadows spoof also references the classic "Run Away" scene in Monty Python's holy Grail:
