Robin Hood Tales #13

In "Attack of the Sea Raiders!", Robin Hood and his Merry Men take on a Viking invasion, launching a desperate defense that turns disastrous when their ship attack fails. Captured and forced into a duel, Robin escapes by leaping overboard, only to find Prince John unwilling to aid him. With the Vikings advancing upriver, the band devises a bold plan, using a giant chain to block the ships and turn the tide on land. As the battle unfolds, Robin's focus remains on England's uncertain future under Prince John's rule.

In "The Knot of Terror!", Prince John traps the people of Huntingdon behind a massive, unbreakable knot, threatening their survival as crops fail. When Robin Hood arrives to help, he’s captured and forced to untie the knot—or face death by ducking chair. With time running out and no solution in sight, a young boy offers a surprising clue: cut to the heart of the matter. Disguised as a guard, Robin uses his bow to weaken the knot with a flurry of arrows, then tears it apart, freeing the town from its ancient curse.

In "King Richard's Iron Mask!", Maid Marian journeys to a shadowed castle where a prisoner in an iron mask begs for her aid—claiming to be the true King Richard, wrongfully imprisoned by Prince John. Remembering a shared hunt in the woods, she races to Sherwood to rally Robin Hood and the Merry Men, only to lead them into a deadly ambush. Captured and betrayed, the outlaws face disgrace—until the masked figure from the castle reveals a shocking truth: he’s not the king, but Robin Hood himself, turning the tables on Prince John with a daring escape and a triumphant laugh.
