In Vol. 7, Valiant now enters the 1950s: The Thule winter is hard and bleak, and a prince who has designs on Aleta must be dealt with. Then it's another epic-length story, "The Missionaries," in which Val and several of his fellow knights and crew travel to Rome on a quest for teachers who might bring Christianity to Thule.

In Vol. 6, Valiant and Aleta journey to "The New World", a 16-month epic that allows Foster to draw some of his spectacular native Canadian backgrounds, and during which Aleta gives birth to Arn. Most of the rest of the book is taken up with the action-packed "The Mad King", during which Val, back at Camelot, confronts the evil, fat little King Tourien of Cornwall.

This title concludes the epic tale "The Winning of Aleta". This is followed by a sequence called "Matrimony", which ends with a newly wed queen adjusting to the luxurious, exciting court life at Camelot. But Val's marriage does not signal an end to his adventures, quite the contrary. In "War in the Forest", Val is sent out to spy on encroaching Saxons - unknowingly aided by Aleta, who, disguised as a small knight (and dubbed "Sir Puny") helps prevent disaster.

This title features one of Hal Foster's patented epics, "The Long Voyage to Thule", which chronicles Valiant's return to his birthplace and reunion with his father. Also included are a series of shorter adventures including "The Seductress", "The Call of the Sea", and "The Jealous Cripple", as well as the fan favorite "The Winning of Aleta", in which Val finally sets out to find his long-lost love.
