PRINCE VALIANT & WASH TUBBS to be Reprinted

Above: Roy Crane's NCS bio page.

From ICV2.com:
Fantagraphics publisher Gary Groth told us at Book Expo America that the company has acquired (or in one case, re-acquired) the rights to reprint two classic adventure strips with long and illustrious histories: Prince Valiant and Wash Tubbs & Captain Easy. Prince Valiant will be presented in an oversized color hardcover format, with two years per book, beginning in 2009.
The strips will be in better quality format than previous publications.

This is grand news.

Big hat tip to Comics Reporter.

    All I know is that Jeff Smith is still designing the POGO series for Fantagraphics and the first book (which was supposed to be out October 2007) is now scheduled for a May 2009 release.
