Since the 1990s, these animated shows have captured the hearts of fans worldwide, and now they’re making a grand comeback in the form of graphic novels.

“We couldn’t be happier working with 41 Entertainment to bring the adventures of King Arthur and Princess Gwenevere to our readers,” said Mark Irwin, VP of Business Development for Mad Cave Studios, We’ll have exciting new talent aboard to update and grow these fantastic characters, and look forward to their incredible stories coming to life in a new medium.”
Allen Bohbot, Managing Director of 41 Entertainment adds “The King Arthur series, and its sequel Princess Gwenevere, as adapted by Mad Cave Studios to reflect a modern take of the Arthurian legends with a more dramatized version, will target an older audience that never tires of these great tales. We are very excited to see these graphic novels come to market which may well serve as a foundation of story and design content for potential new YA animated projects.”
