‘How can I take you from my mind, my sweet Guinevere, when I see you each day? How must I remove you from my heart? I wish to take a knife and cut the part out so that I pain no more. But if I did this, my beautiful Guinevere, I should have no heart left all all.’
‘You are my soul, Sir Lancelot,’ She whispered to herself ‘I know I have married the wrong man, but he is a good man and forever I shall be his Queen. Your heart is large and pure for you, in truth, love all men. For your gift in healing is visionary and you shall be a legend in your own lifetime. Sir Lancelot, I shall love you forever, for you are my only soul.’  

— Realm Of The Bear, S. R. Sorel

Sir Gawain Loses His Boots

Another comic in my series of about the further adventures of Sir Gawain, brave Knight of the Round Table.

The next couple of stories in this ongoing project will be full-colour webcomics like this one.

My other Sir Gawain stories so far were designed and released as limited edition risograph prints – some copies of both are still available from my shop:

Sir Gawain: Witch of the Wirral
Sir Gawain and the Ferryman

More info on this project:

The brilliant, anonymous medieval poet behind the epic Middle English poem ‘Sir Gawain and the Green Knight’ described Gawain’s journey north to meet the fearsome Green Knight in a cursory few dozen lines. We briefly learn that our hero faced many perils along his way, including bears, giants, wild men of the woods, and all kinds of trials of nature. I’m filling in that part of the story with a series of standalone comics, in print and online, following Gawain’s many adventures as he crosses a mythic and strange Britain full of monsters and magic.
