The Black Arrow

Art by: Ramón de la Fuente

Written by: Ramón de la Fuente after R.L Stevenson


Set in the early stages of what would become the War of the Roses (1452–1485), and centred on the young would-be knight Richard Shelton, The Black Arrow is undoubtedly one of Stevenson’s most memorable novels.


  First published in Spain in 1976 by Ediciones AFHA within the series Grandes Obras Ilustradas, it was published in France by Nathan as part of the series Les Oeuvres Célèbres en Bande Dessinée (1977) and in Germany in the magazine Classicomics (1974). 


  More recently, it has been republished in Germany by Kult Comics (2021).
