The Outlaw Prince is the story of a young prince who is
ruthlessly abducted from his family and brainwashed to forget
his identity. He is trained to become the greatest swordsman the
world has ever known, and finds – not surprisingly – good use
for his skills.  Set during the tumultuous Second Baron's War,
it is based on The Outlaw of Torn, a 1927 historical novel by
Tarzan and John Carter of Mars creator Edgar Rice Burroughs.
Adapted by writer Rob Hughes, who initiated the project, and
illustrated by Thomas Yeates with Michael Wm. Kaluta, The Outlaw
Prince is available in two formats. Published by Dark Horse
Comics, the standard edition is an 80-page graphic novel, which
retails for $12.99. There is also a limited, deluxe edition,
which runs 112 pages ad includes pieces by Burroughs scholars.
